## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    This book is packed full of very interesting history of California.
  

*by A***A on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on March 21, 2023*

I have learned a lot about the unique history of the state of California. I highly recommend it if you want to know about how it was settled, the gold rush, the tremendous damage to the rivers done by the hydraulic gold mining, what it was like before the levees and dams built for flood control and so much more.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Fascinating History of How California Was Able to Overcome Politics to Drain the Inland Sea
  

*by G***E on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on August 17, 2022*

This book is written by a history professor, and it is a bit academically focused.  It focusses on policy and politics with a deep dive into key historical figures.  It makes one realize how important the levies are to life in the Sacramento Valley.  It also shows how local politics were affected by national politics.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    GREAT history of h2o in Cally but can be a "slow read".
  

*by L***S on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on February 27, 2014*

As a field biologist working throughout the west, I've been following freshwater "issues" for over a decade.  As a resident in the desert region of southern California for the last 6 years, the issue has come to deeply affect me professionally and personally.  A friend suggested this book as we got to discussing the California history of the legal (and not -so-legal) rights, distribution, and battles with nature and each other all in the name of fresh water.  This has got to be one of, if not THE most comprehensive (to the point nearing exhaustive) thesis on the subject.  I'm not as avid a reader as I used to be but still ritually read about an hour before bed.  The level of detail in this read can be like taking an Ambien so if you're a bedtime reader like me, this will cure your insomnia.  The downside?  It may take me two years to get through it but the knowledge gained is worth it.
