Greetings!



Welcome to our first substantive meeting for the Salinas History Project. I am submitting the first twenty pages of Chapter One (as promised) for your review. Please feel free to mark it up with your thoughts, critique, comments and any suggestions for revision. I welcome all of your input.


You can download the documenthere.


We plan to meet at the John Steinbeck Branch of the Salinas Public Library on Wednesday June 14 at 10am-11am. We will do as we did last time. I will meet you at the front door and we will hold our discussion downstairs.


A note on the Chapter: Although the focus of this work will be the years following World War II, I thought it best to begin at the beginning, which is in the nineteenth century. This section aims to explain how and why Salinas was founded in the context of American (and California) history, and includes bibliographical context as well.
