Explain to the students that we learn about history by reading and thinking about the lives of people who lived before us. True life stories about people are called biographies. Have the class read the governors’ biographies. As they read they should consider the following questions: Where was the governor raised? Who was his wife? How many children did they have? What was it like to be the son or daughter of the governor? What did the governor do before he became governor? In what ways did the governor’s family make the Governor’s Mansion a home? 2. Explain to the students that most of the governors were not born in California. On the United States map identify the city or state where each governor was raised and his family was from.

Vassar Dedicated to Jane Vassar For everything With Special Thanks To: Shane Meyers, Webmaster of JoinCalifornia.com For a friendship, a website, and a decade of trouble-shooting. Senator Robert D. Dutton, Senate Minority Leader Greg Maw, Senate Republican Policy Director For providing gainful employment that I enjoy. Gregory P. Schmidt, Secretary of the Senate Bernadette McNulty, Chief Assistant Secretary of the Senate Holly Hummelt , Senate Amending Clerk Zach Twilla, Senate Reading Clerk For an orderly house and the lists that made this book possible. E. Dotson Wilson, Assembly Chief Clerk Brian S. Ebbert, Assembly Assistant Chief Clerk Timothy Morland, Assembly Reading Clerk For excellent ideas, intriguing questions, and guidance. Jessica Billingsley, Senate Republican Floor Manager For extraordinary patience with research projects that never end. Richard Paul, Senate Republican Policy Consultant For hospitality and good friendship. Wade Teasdale, Senate Republican Policy Consultant For understanding the importance of Bradley and Dilworth. A Note from the Author An important thing to keep in mind as you read this book is that there is information missing. In the first two decades that California’s legislature existed, we had more individuals serve as legislators than we have in the last 90 years.1 Add to the massive turnover the fact that no official biographies were kept during this time and that the state capitol moved seven times during those twenty years, and you have a recipe for missing information. As an example, we only know the birthplace for about 63% of the legislators. In spite of my best efforts, there are still hundreds of legislators about whom we know almost nothing.

  • The Great Depression: California in the Thirties
    The Great Depression: California in the Thirties California was hit hard by the economic collapse of the 1930s. Businesses failed, workers lost their jobs, and families fell into poverty. While the political response to the depression often was confused and ineffective, social messiahs offered alluring panaceas promising relief and recovery. In spite of the general gloom of the decade, Californians continued to build and celebrate their Golden State. Hard Times Californians who lived through the 1920s and 1930s must have felt as though they were on a roller coaster. In a dizzying cycle of boom and bust, a decade of spectacular prosperity was followed by the worst economic collapse in the state's history. Ramshackle encampments, such as Pipe City in Oakland, filled with forlorn unemployed workers and their families. The crash of the Macon, a helium-filled dirigible, mirrored the collapsing fortunes of Californians everywhere. The hard times of the thirties contributed to a disturbing resurgence of nativism; authorities shipped thousands of Mexican deportees across the border. Meanwhile, thousands of new Dust Bowl refugees from the heartland of America streamed into California seeking a better life. Their coming inspired John Steinbeck to write The Grapes of Wrath (1939) and Dorothea Lange to compile an epic photographic record. The newcomers created in California an "Okie subculture," a way of life still flourishing today. Discontented workers in the thirties went on the offensive. Farmworkers and farm owners locked horns in yet another round of total engagement. The San Francisco General Strike of 1934 paralyzed the bay area and attracted national attention.

  • Irish and Chinese Under the San Francisco Ethic
    tAwo Ethnicity and Troubled Ethnic Relations lthough the Irish had experienced bigotry and prejudice at first hand in the Irish homeland A and in New York, Boston, and other East Coast cities, the relative freedom from such atti - tudes, and certainly from institutionalized discrimination, in California did not necessarily translate into Irish-American tolerance for other ethnic communities. The notorious anti-Chinese movement in San Francisco, led by the flamboyant Irish immigrant and popular demagogue Denis Kearney, provides ample evidence that Irish racial and ethnic attitudes were no better than those of other Americans during the nineteenth century. Daniel Meissner, in the first essay, traces the parallel pat - terns of immigration and settlement of the two groups, Irish and Chinese, in San Francisco and ana - lyzes the shifts in community relations following the swings of the economic pendulum. In the second essay, Jeffrey Burns examines the career of the quintessential Irish parish of San Francisco, St. Peter’s in the Mission District. The parish’s “national” identity, drawn from the Irish ethnicity of the surrounding neighborhood, was reinforced by its dynamic and outspoken Irish pastor, Father Peter C. Yorke. With the demographic change of the Mission in the mid-twentieth century, and the arrival of new Catholic immigrants from Mexico and Central America, the Irish character of St. Peter’s would be challenged and ultimately overwhelmed by the new ethnicities. The relations between the dominant but declining Irish community and the Latino newcomers presented a new, if less dra - matic form of ethnic contention between the Irish and a rival ethnic community.

Oakland: Thompson & West, 1878. 170pp., profusely illustrated with full-page illustrations and forty-four colored maps (twenty-four double page, three of those folding). The contents calls for a map of Niles on page 129, but it does not appear on the sheet. Folio. Original brown cloth, gilt, with new green morocco backstrip and corners. New pastedowns, lacking endpapers. A few pages with neat tape repairs (almost all confined to the margins), else quite clean internally. Very good. A very attractive copy of a scarce California county atlas, with a profusion of maps and illustrations of the East Bay. Publishers Thompson & West were based in Oakland, and though they produced several California county atlases during this period they lavished great care and attention to detail on this atlas showing their home county. This is especially evident in the profusion of maps, which show the state, the county, and several cities, towns, and townships, often in great detail. There are also dozens of illustrations of homes, farms, public buildings, and businesses in the county, including several salt works, landings, and a nursery. Not in Howes, who does list several other California county atlases published by Thompson & West. These atlases are often found in quite rough or incomplete condition - this is a very nice, complete copy. COWAN, p.827. ROCQ 11. $2,250 Elihu Root’s Copy 2.

  • The Suburbanization of Manufacturing in the San Francisco Bay Area, 1850-1940
    INDUSTRY BUILDS OUT THE CITY: THE SUBURBANIZATION OF MANUFACTURING IN THE SAN FRANCISCO BAY AREA, 1850-1940 By Richard A. Walker Department of Geography University of California Berkeley, CA 94720 [email protected] Published version (with maps) in The Manufactured Metropolis edited by Robert Lewis Temple University Press 2004 pp. 92-123 ANYONE MAY DOWNLOAD AND USE THIS PAPER WITH THE USUAL COURTESY OF CITATION. COPYRIGHT 2004. 2 ABSTRACT The San Francisco Bay Area provides a clear example of industrial dispersal creating the sprawling form of the American metropolis. Neither change in transport modes nor residential suburbanization is principally responsible for shaping the outward spiral of urbanization. Manufacturing began its outward march from the outset of the city’s industrialization, establishing peripheral nodes of employment and working class residence within San Francisco, then beyond the city limits in South San Francisco and especially the East Bay. The primary cause of decentralization has been industrial shifts, or the outbreak of new activities in new places; these have normally taken the form of industrial districts, at various spatial scales. A second cause has been the orchestration of development by business leaders through property ownership and political maneuvering guided by a general vision of metropolitan expansion (whether in cooperation or competition with one another).
