Book Sacramento s Newton Booth and Poverty Ridge

Download or read book Sacramento s Newton Booth and Poverty Ridge written by Sean Manwaring and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2020-10-12 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Gold Rush-era Sacramento, turbulent floodwaters chased early citizens to a temporary island--a prominent hill near the Sacramento and American Rivers that came to be known as Poverty Ridge. In the ensuing years, as small farms developed across the southeastern corner of the original city grid, a two-room wooden schoolhouse was erected to serve the educational needs of surrounding families and was named in honor of California's 11th governor, Newton Booth. The surrounding neighborhood came to share the school's name. Since the 1850s, Poverty Ridge and Newton Booth have been home to Gold Rush pioneers, gifted vintners and brewers, devout nuns and nurses, celebrated authors, media giants, and larger-than-life politicians, all with visions of a better life--a California life.

Book Newton Booth  of California  His Speeches and Addresses  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Newton Booth of California His Speeches and Addresses Classic Reprint written by Newton Booth and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-06 with total page 538 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Newton Booth, of California, His Speeches and Addresses Every man who during his lifetime has been a public servant and educator, whose speeches and writings have been of such high character and permanent interest as to deserve preservation, has written and spoken his own biography. The record of the main incidents in his career are, however, an aid to an understanding of character, while the portrayal of characteristics gives a better knowledge of the man. There have lived men who commanded respect and fame for intellectual qualities only; others who were admirable also for the cardinal virtues; and a smaller number possessing high qualities both intellectual and moral, and gifted besides with attributes that endeared them personally to multitudes. Such men are rare, and when they pass away many are eager to learn all that may be told of them. In person Newton Booth was a singular blending of grace and power. At first glance he impressed one as tall, slightly built, and almost fragile; at second, he presented an effect of proportion and of action, with shoulders relatively broad, chest deep, and a sinewy ease of movement suggesting muscles of flexible steel. The earlier impression was that of a scholarly presence almost delicate; the later, of possible strength allied with tireless energy.

Download or read book Railroad Crossing written by William F. Deverell and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 1994-03-02 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nothing so changed nineteenth-century America as did the railroad. Growing up together, the iron horse and the young nation developed a fast friendship. Railroad Crossing is the story of what happened to that friendship, particularly in California, and it illuminates the chaos that was industrial America from the middle of the nineteenth century through the first decade of the twentieth. Americans clamored for the progress and prosperity that railroads would surely bring, and no railroad was more crucial for California than the transcontinental line linking East to West. With Gold Rush prosperity fading, Californians looked to the railroad as the state's new savior. But social upheaval and economic disruption came down the tracks along with growth and opportunity. Analyzing the changes wrought by the railroad, William Deverell reveals the contradictory roles that technology and industrial capitalism played in the lives of Americans. That contrast was especially apparent in California, where the gigantic corporate "Octopus"—the Southern Pacific Railroad—held near-monopoly status. The state's largest employer and biggest corporation, the S.P. was a key provider of jobs and transportation—and wielder of tremendous political and financial clout. Deverell's lively study is peopled by a rich and disparate cast: railroad barons, newspaper editors, novelists, union activists, feminists, farmers, and the railroad workers themselves. Together, their lives reflect the many tensions—political, social, and economic—that accompanied the industrial transition of turn-of-the-century America.
