Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book commemorates the first pilgrimage to Rubidoux, a California cross-crowned hilltop, to honor the memory of early California settlers. Each Easter morning, a diverse group of people ascend the hill for a religious service. The author's poem, inspired by wildflowers gathered during the inaugural pilgrimage, evokes the resurrection of Christ through these blossoms. The book also includes views of Rubidoux, including one from Huntington Drive, and is dedicated to Jacob Riis, a renowned philanthropist who suggested the pilgrimage. Riis envisioned an annual ceremonial festival, climbing towards the cross, uniting all in a message of peace and goodwill. This book celebrates the historical and spiritual significance of Rubidoux and offers a glimpse into the author's deeply felt connection to the site and its symbolism.
