TALES OF THE SAN JOAQUIN, A RIVER JOURNEY follows the San Joaquin River from its source in the Sierra Nevada Mountains to its eventual meeting with San Francisco Bay.

This is the story of how this once mighty river was destroyed by water diversion and what the possibilities are for its eventual restoration.Read moreLess
