Also address integrity. ) The 739 Golden Park Avenue residence is historically significant due to its association with prominent local San Diego personages. One of the earliest owners of the property was noted naturalist and writer Griffing Bancroft. Originally, however, the residence was constructed in 1929 for Harlan R. and Hortense E. Wilson. The residence's address at this tillle was 739 Arzada Terrace. Harlan Wilson was prominent in San Diego fraternal and yachting cir cles for twenty years. Wilson was a retired merchant who served as Commodore of the San Diego Yacht Club between 1931-1932, and was active in the such fraternal organizations as the San Jacinto Lodge 238 P . & A.M., the San Diego Scottish Rite Bodies, Al Bahr Temple of the Shrine, Sigma Nu Alumni Chapter, and the Maritime Society. In 1952, Dr. Wilbert and Mary E. Chapman purchased the property at 739 Golden Park Avenue. Dr. Chapman was an internationally noted ichthyologist, writer, and conservationist in both the public and private sectors. The 739 Golden Park Avenue residence, therefore, is historically significant due to its association with historically significant individuals Harlan Wilson and Dr. Wilbert Chapman. The 739 Golden Park Avenue residence is also architecturally significant as an excellent exampl e of a late 1920s Spanish Colonial La Playa design, despite the fact that the building's architect could not be determined. The composition of the residence's magnificent archit ectural plan, its tiled fountains, tile pavered walkways, carefully honed and hung doorways and windows, and outside architectural landscaping, all contribute in making the Wilson Residence a significant architectural contribution to the La Playa regional scene.

  • The Case of Hubert H. Bancroft and Mariano G. Vallejo
    American Literary History Advance Access published September 12, 2007 The Political Economy of Early Chicano Historiography: The Case of Hubert H. Bancroft and Mariano G. Vallejo Marissa Lo´pez In 1973, the eminent Chicano literary critic Juan Bruce-Novoa wrote, “Chicano literature is in danger of being shackled to super- ficial characteristics” (14). He was lamenting the tendency of critics and publishers to insist on easily identifiable traits such as language and the barrio experience in order to consider literature ‘Chicano’. Although our arguments have become more nuanced, the essential conditions Bruce-Novoa decried have not changed much since 1973. Chicano literary criticism still tends toward an ideological parochialism, defining Chicano literature in terms of its expressions of oppression and opposition. Nowhere is this more clear than in discussions of nineteenth-century Californio writer Mariano Vallejo’s 1875 memoir Recuerdos Historicos y Personales Tocante a´ la Alta California (Historical and Personal Recollections Touching upon Alta California). Troubled by Vallejo’s position as a wealthy, pro-US Mexican ranchero, scholars have focused solely on his critique of the US and his articulations of what they view as proto-Chicano politics. Such treatment, however, glosses his enthu- siastic endorsement of the free market and disregards his literary and philosophical contributions to nationalist debates in late nineteenth-century California. Reading Vallejo’s memoir as an extended meditation on historical narrative and international law, rather than as an elegy for his disappearing community, highlights the complex interpretive processes that enable ethnic identity. Such an approach also offers a model for Chicano critical strategies that Marissa Lo´pez is an Assistant Professor of English at UCLA, where she is also affiliated with the Department of Chicana and Chicano Studies and the Chicana/o Studies Research Center.

  • Hubert Howe Bancroft in Colorado
    The History Company building at 72 1 Market Street, S ctn Francisco, which housed Hubert Howe Bancroft's pu blishing ventures, was erected in 1886 after a Hubert Howe Bancroft disastrous fire destroyed the earlier 1870 building. It is seen here decorated in honor in Colorado of a Knights T emplars' convocation, an organi;mtion of w hich Bancroft was an honorary member. BY BENJAMIN DRAPER Hubert Howe Bancroft's reputation as a collector of his­ torical materials has long been assured. The Bancroft Library at the University of California in Berkeley was founded with sixty thousand books and manuscripts which he gathered for his thirty-nine-volume Works, 1 of which volumes 17 to 37 are devoted to the history of the Pacific states. Volume 25 in this series covers Nevada, Colorado, and Wyoming. These Bancroft writings have been both the despair and the joy of scholars. His work has been variously characterized as opinionated, inaccurate, prejudiced, and unworthy.2 Yet, tucked away here and there, especially in the twenty-one volumes devoted to the history of the Pacific states, planned in 1880 and published over the next decade, there are valuable accounts of men and women and exploits of local history. Ban­ croft and his agents gathered firsthand material, much of which today is to be found nowhere else. Not for his skill as a historian so much as for this assemblage of "footnotes" to the history of the American West can modern scholars be grateful to, Bancroft. His Colorado activities between 1883 and 1889, typical of his procedures elsewhere, are better documented in surviving reco,rds than are those of other places.
