From the announcement: "California Adventure is, first of all, an excerpt from a much longer work, Recuerdos del Pasado, in which a distinguished Chi lean man of letters, Vicente Perez Rosales, recounted his memories of the journeys about the world. First issued some sixty years ago in Santiago." "Until now, none of the Recuerdos has been translated into English.
