Description
Jeannine Raymond is back to tell us the tale of Fresno's lumber industry, which began with the county's birth in 1856 and continued strong until the Great Depression. You'll be treated to many obscure historical images and fascinating sidelights, and see how loggers, sawmills, flumes, and freighting teams worked together to harvest the Sierra's vast natural bounty. This program was originally presented on February 10, 2022, on Zoom.
