When Charles Fletcher Lummis (1859-1928) author, Los Angeles
booster, and founder of the Landmarks Club of Southern California, was offered
a job at the Los Angeles Times in
1884, he decided to walk from Cincinnati. On this trip he became enamored with
the American Southwest and an advocate for Native American rights. Lummis would
go on to be instrumental in the restoration of the missions and become
publisher of the magazine Land of
Sunshine. He built El Alisal in 1897.
