The Times-Standard of Eureka, California posted a very nice piece about my latest book, Historic Photos of Old California.
In brief, they wrote: Author Nancy Hendrickson has written a new book that features a bevy of old California photographs.
”Historic Photos of Old California” (Turner Publishing Co., $39.95) includes 199 images from throughout the state, with text and captions penned by Hendrickson. The pictures are separated into four chapters: “Exploration and Exultation!” (1850-1869), “Civilization Comes West” (1870-1889), “A Kinder, Gentler California” (1890- 1899) and “From Disaster to Rebirth (1900-1920).
”California’s early days are documented in thousands of historic photographs that reside in archives, both locally and nationally. This book began with the observation that, while those photographs are of great interest to many, they are not easily accessible,” writes Todd Bottorff, publisher, in the book’s preface.
