Book 1845 1870 An Untold Story of Northern California

Download or read book 1845 1870 An Untold Story of Northern California written by Daniel Smith and published by Publication Consultants. This book was released on 2019-11-01 with total page 109 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 1845-1870 An Untold Story of Northern California is a revisionist historical non-fiction narrative of the American settling of Northern California, and their difficult experiences with local native conflicts that arose. These hostility's have been eyeballed and extensively written about through the eyes of the indigenous locals. Modern knowledge on the true experiences of the pioneers settling of this specific area of 19th century Northern California, today, is seemingly swept under the rug. This literature serves as a window for the reader to understand the mindsets and culture of the American settlers as they homesteaded the Northern California region from 1845 to 1870. This literature includes massive amounts of information regarding unheard-of regional hostilities and depredations against the American settlers during this time-frame. 1845-1870 An Untold Story of Northern California also exposes and ties-in certain cultural. religious, and legal functions that solidified the history of what truly happened during Northern California's unstable history! A must-have for students, teachers, and history enthusiasts!

Book Islands through Time

Download or read book Islands through Time written by Todd J. Braje and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2021-11-06 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Explore the remarkable history of one of the jewels of the US National Park system California’s Northern Channel Islands, sometimes called the American Galápagos and one of the jewels of the US National Park system, are a located between 20 and 44 km off the southern California mainland coast. Celebrated as a trip back in time where tourists can capture glimpses of California prior to modern development, the islands are often portrayed as frozen moments in history where ecosystems developed in virtual isolation for tens of thousands of years. This could not, however, be further from the truth. For at least 13,000 years, the Chumash and their ancestors occupied the Northern Channel Islands, leaving behind an archaeological record that is one of the longest and best preserved in the Americas. From ephemeral hunting and gathering camps to densely populated coastal villages and Euro-American and Chinese historical sites, archaeologists have studied the Channel Island environments and material culture records for over 100 years. They have pieced together a fascinating story of initial settlement by mobile hunter-gatherers to the development of one of the world’s most complex hunter-gatherer societies ever recorded, followed by the devastating effects of European contact and settlement. Likely arriving by boat along a “kelp highway,” Paleocoastal migrants found not four offshore islands, but a single super island, Santarosae. For millennia, the Chumash and their predecessors survived dramatic changes to their land- and seascapes, climatic fluctuations, and ever-evolving social and cultural systems. Islands Through Time is the remarkable story of the human and ecological history of California’s Northern Channel Islands. We weave the tale of how the Chumash and their ancestors shaped and were shaped by their island homes. Their story is one of adaptation to shifting land- and seascapes, growing populations, fluctuating subsistence resources, and the innovation of new technologies, subsistence strategies, and socio-political systems. Islands Through Time demonstrates that to truly understand and preserve the Channel Islands National Park today, archaeology and deep history are critically important. The lessons of history can act as a guide for building sustainable strategies into the future. The resilience of the Chumash and Channel Island ecosystems provides a story of hope for a world increasingly threatened by climate change, declining biodiversity, and geopolitical instability.

Download or read book Something From Nothing written by Salvatore John Manna and published by . This book was released on 2020-11-29 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Discover the fascinating and colorful history of west Calaveras County in northern California, the pioneering people and events that shaped Gold Country towns such as Valley Springs, Burson, Wallace, Jenny Lind, Campo Seco, Camanche, Milton, Paloma and more. Bringing together the first 100 numbered "Something From Nothing" monthly columns plus two bonus features, each penned by author and historian Sal Manna and first published in The Valley Springs News from March 2006 to June 2014, this volume features dozens of never-before-revealed stories as well as hundreds of historical photographs from the 19th and 20th centuries, most published here for the first time. West Calaveras was home to the most powerful and controversial politician in California history (William Gwin), the first California-born admiral in the U.S. Navy (Ted Vogelgesang), the pioneer woman who inspired a TV series (Euphemia Hill), two men who helped create the olive industry in northern California (Henry Moore and Louis Sammis), the entrepreneur who revolutionized the circular saw and became mayor of Oakland (Nathan Spaulding), an acclaimed landscape painter (Arthur Earl Haddock), and the only African American Civil War soldier buried in the Mother Lode (John Dawson). West Calaveras has within its borders Wallace, the only town on the globe named after the family of renowned naturalist Alfred Russel Wallace; Milton, the only town in California named after Milton Latham, one of the state's first U.S. congressmen, our sixth governor, and one of our two U.S. senators at the start of the Civil War; and Burson, the only town in the county named after a Civil War veteran, Daniel Smith Burson. Within these pages are a famed bridge builder (Samuel Ryland), a dam named for a governor (George Pardee), a murderer whose case set a precedent that continues to be cited 100 years later (Joseph Hubert), and the man who shot infamous outlaw Black Bart (Reason McConnell) plus the story of Ah Lin, the last Chinese miner; silent film star Nance O'Neil, who lived with the notorious Lizzie Borden; Elijah Swinford, who served in both the Union and Confederate armies; and Thomas Van Buren, the man responsible for Double Springs becoming our first county seat. This collection also embraces a descendant of the model for a character in "Uncle Tom's Cabin" and a builder of the U.S.S. Constitution, and descendants of several U.S. Presidents; as well as historic homes and historic railroads, doctors and teachers, shopkeepers and soldiers, hard-working farmers, miners and businessmen, and vicious criminals too; a boxer and baseball players; rock art and poetry; hotels and automobiles; politics and family life; disasters and triumphs. This is local history, state history and even American history as experienced within the borders of one of California's original counties.
