Alfred Robinson (1806–1895), later known in Spanish as Don Alfredo Robinson, was a Californian author and businessman. Born in Massachusetts, Robinson immigrated to California (then a part of Mexico) in 1829, to work in the California hide trade. He published Life in California in 1846, an influential early description of Californian society prior to the U.S. Conquest of California. (From Wikipedia)
