The Sierra Nevada
TL;DR: When we reflect that the mountain valleys were thickly populated as far east as Yosemite (in summer, still further up), and consider the great extent and fertility of the San Joaquin plains, we shall see what a capacity there was to support a dense population as mentioned in this paper.
Book ChapterDOI
The Central Valley Region

Book ChapterDOI

Journal ArticleDOI
