the development of California has been presented as an inevitable process, the outcome of which was predetermined at the start. but
at every step of the way, choices have been made, choices that
created the present state of things.

as inexorable and natural as the sun, traveling from east to
west
much has been sacrificed to make this vision a reality
take the
valley oak, rare now after 150 years of clearing for farmland
and burning for firewood, which can grow to more than six hundred
years
old with a diameter of 9 feet. a tree made for the description majestic.
