To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Above all, a Pima Gileflo, captured by the Apaches three or four years before, had said that he was taken in five days to a place where he saw a religious say mass, and where there were Indians with Moqui blankets. He escaped, and got back to his tribe after seven days, travelling only by night. He must have been in New Mexico, thought Crespo. An expedition to New Mexico ought, therefore, to be attempted. In conclusion, Crespo remarked that he contemplated a dif- ferent commander for this exped...ition, for extended explo- rations would be necessary, requiring an officer of particu- larly good qualifications and conspicuous talents. With an attempt at modesty, Crespo then offered his own ser- vices.' As immediately affecting the Anza expedition, Crespo's plans had no chance of adoption, even had they been received before that expedition was authorized. ^^T involved considerable expense and delay in the Alta C)au- fomia settlements, which were at this time Bucarely s chief concern. Crespo, in Sonora, where fordgn aggT^®" sion was inconceivable, could not grasp the importatxce o foimding San Francisco.
