Mission San José: a pen sketch of the days of the old mission
Manuscripts
This manuscript is an account of early California history and in particular the Mission at San José. Bishop writes in poetic terms about the beauty of early California, and traces the origins of the Mission back to Junípero Serra. Of the site of the Mission, which he describes in great detail, Bishop writes: "If this was not an earthly paradise, then such could not be found on the face of the globe." Bishop not only describes the Mission physically, but also the general routine of daily life there in the days following its founding in 1776.
