Highway 99 is a diverse 545-page anthology of essays, short fiction, poetry and plays. It covers well-known explorers such as John Muir commenting on how the valley was one mass of wildflowers in the spring (alas, no more) to Mexican farmworkers and Hmong refugees. The quality is quite high. The more I read, the more I realized how ignorant I am. I enjoyed seeing my hometown mentioned a few times, and several essays on the reason my great-grandparents came to the valley - the discovery of oil a century ago.
Great book, and one I highly recommend for anyone in or from the Central Valley. ( )
