Description: Sourced from the dust cover flaps ( image provided with listing): In this special look back on the history of a very special place, native scholar Jacobson offers a history with more than local interest. Rare photographs from private collections, as well as images from some of America's foremost photographers (including Ansel Adams, Andrew P. Hill, Dorothea Lange, and others), bring an almost forgotten part of the nation's past vividly and beautifully to mind. Relying on personal correspondence and other previously unpublished materials, Jacobson portrays the extraordinary moral character of the immigrant settlers of this "Valley of Heart's Delight." The foreword by Pulitzer Prize-winning novelist ( and Santa Clara County resident ) Wallace Stegner assesses the revolutionary changes in the Valley in the broad context of modern American experience.
