  • Los Altos Hills History Anthology 1956
    LOS ALTOS HILLS H I S TORY ANTHOLOGY 1956 – 2016 Our Heritage o paraphrase Robert Kennedy, few will have the greatness to bend history itself; but each of us can work to change a small portion of events, and in the total, of all those acts will be written the history of our town. This anthology weaves together a colorful, Thistorical tapestry to celebrate the 60th anniversary of Los Altos Hills. Stories and images recount the experience of everyday people, farmers, writers, entrepreneurs, innovators, and philanthropists whose lives have influenced the character of our town. From decade to decade, residents exhibit a spirit of independence, an appreciation for nature and wildlife, a high regard for quality public education, and a deep commitment to volunteerism and community service. Taken together, these values form our heritage. This Ruth McMahon heritage can be a source of pride, yet it is fragile — and her horse Poncho went door always on the brink of being compromised or to door “aback” to obtain signatures lost. The goal of this anthology for the petition to incorporate. is to inspire an appreciation of our past and encourage participation in the small events that make our town unique.
