The Squatter and the Don by Rosaura Sánchez, Beatrice Pita, María Amparo Ruiz de Burton

2.0

This novel was assigned to me one year for an American Literature class. It was a bit difficult to get into, but it is a good story of how Americans stole land from Hispanics during the Gold-Rush era. The novel discusses the lives of an Hispanic family and an American family and how their lives differ, even though their lives are intertwined.
