S4 Ep3 The Laws of the Town of San Francisco 1847 "Your Water Has a Strange After Taste"

  • Summary

  • By January 30, 1847, the Pueblo de Yerba Buena was officially renamed the Town of San Francisco.

    Mexican laws weren't very well written, if written at all, which left the US military in charge of creating order in a land (Alta California), that wasn't used to having rules.

    This episode is a discussion between Girlina and architectural historian, Jonathon Lammers, regarding the Laws of the Town of San Francisco 1847, as captured in what is believed to be California's first pamphlet written entirely in English.
