San Francisco Bay Area Sports
On June 19, 2015, five hundred thousand fans took to the streets of downtown Oakland, California, to cheer the Golden State Warriors in their first National Basketball Association championship in forty years. Even as the parade proceeded, unease rippled through the crowd. The team had recently announced plans to relocate to a new billion-dollar arena in San Francisco by the 2019–2020 season—a highly charged topic that reflected long-simmering ten…
Soft Soil, Black Grapes
Three generations of social historians have examined midwestern farm people in the full context of their culture since the early nineteenth century—their ethnicity, gender, class loyalties, religion, family networks, and community relations. In contrast, the vast majority of our understanding of California rural history comes from farm-labor studies emphasizing Asian and Mexican immigrant workers' experiences. Jon Gjerde, John Mack Faragher, and …
Abner Doubleday, Marc Bloch, and the Cultural Significance of Baseball in Rural America
In 1907 baseball's promoters decreed that Civil War hero Abner Doubleday created the game in the village of Cooperstown, New York, in 1839. Baseball thus acquired a distinctly rural American origin and a romantic pastoral appeal. Skeptics have since presented irrefutable evidence that America's pastime was neither born in the United States nor was a product of rural life. But in their zeal to debunk the myth of baseball's rural beginnings, histor…

A Tale of Three Land Grants on the Northern California Borderlands
This essay examines three classic Mexican land grants along Putah Creek in the lower Sacramento Valley--Rio de los Putos, Los Putos, and Laguna de Santos Callé. The first was confirmed rather routinely, the second was a "floating" claim, and the third was an out and out fraud. Analyzed together, these three grants complicate our understanding of the northern borderlands, a term rarely applied to the far reaches of Alta California. Anglo and Hispa…

After the Gold Rush
In the 1850s and 1860s, prior to California's bonanza wheat era, a prominent agricultural community emerged along Putah Creek in the lower Sacramento Valley. This was a community of considerable stability, despite being settled by displaced 49 ers—speculators, squatters, and “swamplanders”—on a fraudulent Mexican land grant. Capitalist and traditional values, imported from the Midwest, sustained them

Linear parks, frequently developed on abandoned railroad lines, have become a common type of recreation site. Adjacent landowners often express strong concerns about proposed linear parks. However, it has been suggested that these concerns are usually misplaced and once the park is actually developed they disappear. Survey data from a sample of landowners along the Missouri River State Trail in central Missouri are analyzed and the results sugges…
