Title: good background for California's coming of age
Review: I read this book for a book club that focuses on history and was not disappointed. I had never heard of the author or knew much about California's early history into the 1950's, but this collection of well written essays tells you everything you might want to know about the political, religious, historical and moral climate of California from the gold rush days to the 1940's. The essays are written from the 1920's through the 1940's and show the historical pespective of one who has lived during this time and is immensely knowledgeable about the climate of what is happening on all fronts. Excellent reference source.
