Olives in California's Gold Country" Lecture, Book Signing & Olive Tasting
by Authors Salvatore Manna and Terry Beaudoin
The newest addition to Arcadia Publishing’s popular Images of America series is Olives in California’s Gold Country by Salvatore Manna and Terry Beaudoin. The book boasts more than 200 vintage images and memories of the olive in the Gold Country.
The history of the olive in the Gold Country of Northern California is a story of the Spanish in the New World, of the Gold Rush, of immigrants from Italy and other Mediterranean countries, of bold pioneers, enterprising farmers and scientists, and of businessmen and businesswomen. Focusing on Calaveras County in the south and Placer County in the north, but also exploring the olive throughout most of Northern California, including olive havens such as Corning and Oroville, that story is told within these pages through rare and fascinating photographs. For those who wish to explore the olive in Northern California, whether its history, industry or technology, this volume provides both an appetizer and a satisfying entrée. As love of the olive grows, for the first time a book tells the tale of the olive tree, the king of trees, in the Mother Lode of California.
Sal Manna has been published in the California Historical Society’s quarterly journal, is the Founder and President of the Society for the Preservation of West Calaveras History, and has previously co-authored the Northern Calaveras County and Angels Camp and Copperopolis editions in Arcadia Publishing’s Images of America series.
Terry Beaudoin is the founder and owner of Beaudoin’s Olive Products in Valley Springs in Calaveras County. A member of CalaverasGROWN, the Calaveras County Historical Society, and Big Trees State Park Association, he is also on the Board of Directors of the Calaveras Community Foundation.
