In the mid-1800s, California was as much Spanish as it was American, and competing claims over the land grants that had been issued by the Spanish government created a major controversy in the territory. That's the backdrop of this short novel from Bret Harte, which centers on the enchanting Maruja Saltonstall, who is torn between multiple suitors.
