Valley for Dreams is a fascinating historical geography of 'forgotten California'—that portion of the Great Central Valley north of Sacramento. Structured around four key themes—the environment, people, economy, and landscape— the book analyzes how this region's lush natural environment changed as successive groups and individuals made it one of the fastest growing and ethnically diverse rural areas in North America. The book's numerous maps, graphs, tables, sketches, and photographs bring the area's geography to life. Valley for Dreams is an important work for geographers, historians, and local residents interested in their town geographies.
