Description
A lively, literary and extraordinary visual look at the symbiotic and highly smbolic relationship between the Golden State and its ‘golden apple’. Untold thousands of adventurers and health-seekers came West in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, lured by postcards of orange blossoms on now-capped mountains. The orange became a symbol of everything California promised, and California became the centre of the Orange Empire. Author David Boule shares the absorbing story of the orange and its impact on the culture of California.
