Description
Oakland, California, 1900. Mutual L. & Lith. Co. Published by F. & H. Soderberg.
After being inhabited by Native Americans, the area that was to become Oakland was claimed by Spanish explorers in the late 17th century. The land became part of Alto California after the Mexican War for Independence, and the region was later conquered by American forces during the Mexican-American War. In 1852, during the California Gold Rush, the town was incorporated by the California legislature. This beautiful map provides a look back to the early days of the city.
