Description: Joseph Warren Revere was part of the United States military that invaded Alta California in 1846 during the Mexican-American War. In his 1849 book about his military stories and life in a Rancho, Revere includes illustrations. This one depicts a "Pui" (Feast Day) that he saw in person, likely in a Rancho within Monterey County, California, which are the lands of the Esselen, Rumsen, and Salinan peoples.
