About this listen
In the second part of my interview with Michael Hardwick, we hear about Hippolyte Bouchard, a pirate who raided California's coast, and learn about the history of the Spanish and Mexican presidios.
This episode explores sea battles, invasions, and the armaments used during California's conquest and defense.
Historian Michael R. Hardwick shares insights into powder supplies, Spanish cannons, and colonial history from 1769 to the Mexican War.
In an interesting twist, Michael introduces also us to Spanish horticultural practices at the California missions.
