Eureka and Humboldt County, California
Eureka and Humboldt County, California - Book
ARC068
The cry amongst the redwoods-Eureka!-was the shout heard from early pioneers in 1850 as they came to settle in Humboldt County. Discovery of gold permanently changed the area's history, and eventually lead to the extraction of Humboldt's other natural resource: the "red gold" of its forests. . Captured here in over 200 vintage photographs is the pictorial history of this bountiful county and its residents. As the gold fever faded in the late 1800s, Humboldt County's primary source of industry became the lumbering of its vast redwoods. Pictured here are the men and machines that felled, transported, and milled the lumber, as well as...

Eureka
Eureka - Book
ARC067
Tucked away behind the "redwood curtain" on the northwestern coast of California lies the historic city of Eureka. The location of the city directly alongside Humboldt Bay combined with the abundance of redwood attracted miners, loggers, and fishermen, and the city grew and prospered quickly. Using a comparison of historic images gathered from several historical archives matched with current photographs taken by the author, this book shows Eureka's transformation from a wild logging and fishing town into the modern city it has become today.

Fortuna and the Eel River Valley
Fortuna and the Eel River Valley - Book
ARC058
Nestled along the Eel River in Northern California's Humboldt County, Fortuna has changed and grown according to economic and historical forces. Harvesting, milling, and shipping of redwood lumber provided the economic mainstay for nearly 100 years. The fertile Eel River Valley became known for its apples, potatoes, and a large dairy industry. Relative isolation ended in 1914 with the completion of the railroad from San Francisco, and in the 1920s expanded automobile traffic brought growing numbers of tourists to the redwood forests. "Friendly Fortuna" is a city of celebrations, known for its annual rodeo, first held in 1921....

The 1964 Flood of Humboldt and Del Norte
The 1964 Flood of Humboldt and Del Norte - Book
ARC095
The 1964 flood in the Eel and Klamath Rivers drainages represents an extreme weather event. Both the Northern California and Southern OR coasts are host to many floods, but the 1964 flood stands out as a representation of the "perfect storm." Three events occurred that led to the flood. First, a cold front moved in and dropped several feet of snow. Second, a warm front called the "pineapple connection" moved in and released lots of rain while melting the snowfall--local measurements varied from 20 to 32 inches of rainwater in three days. And third, the highest tide of the year had backed up debris and water for several miles. At its peak,...
