Excerpt from A Guide to Rides and Drives in Santa Barbara and Vicinity: With a Map of the Country and Some General Information of Use to Tourists
Since then two alien races have left their impress upon the land, and in the strong, fierce light of civilization its dusky child ren have vanished like vapor before the sun. Now the land laughs with plenty fruitful trees from every clime grow side by side with its native oaks; the flowers ask but to grow and bloom; gardens spring up at the touch of the hand and still there is room within the borders of this Happy Valley for all, the sick and well, the old and young, - and Santa Barbara bids them wel come.
