Hanford
Hanford, in the south San Joaquin Valley near the junction of the San Joaquin and Kings Rivers, has grown from its origin as a railroad stop to a modern city and business center while maintaining its agricultural tradition through ranches, dairy farms, vineyards, and other crops. Created by the Southern Pacific Railroad and named for paymaster James Madison Hanford, the town was incorporated in 1891 and named the seat of Kings County two years later.

The Hanford Plaintiffs
For more than four decades beginning in 1944, the Hanford nuclear weapons facility in southeastern Washington State secretly blanketed much of the Pacific Northwest with low-dose ionizing radiation, the byproduct of plutonium production. For those who lived in the vicinity, many of them families of Hanford workers, the consequences soon became apparent as rates of illness and death steadily climbed—despite repeated assurances from the Atomic Energy Commission that the facility posed no threat. Trisha T. Pritikin, who has battled a lifetime of debilitating illness to become a lawyer and advocate for her fellow “downwinders,” tells the devastating story of those who were harmed in Hanfor...
Hanford
Hanford, created by the Southern Pacific Railroad and named for paymaster James Madison Hanford, is located in the southern portion of the San Joaquin Valley near the San Joaquin and Kings Rivers. Incorporated in 1891 and named the seat of Kings County two years later, this city has grown from humble origins to become a center for business and government while also maintaining its agricultural tradition in ranching, dairy farms, vineyards, and other crops. The story of Hanford is captured here in vintage photographs that detail its history from the Tache tribe of the Yokut Indians, who were first to inhabit the region, to the coming of the railroad and the infamous Mussel Slough tragedy that led to monopoly reform laws, and finally to the building of the town itself.
The War of 1812 on the Genesee River: A Documentary Journey
During the War of 1812, the area along the Genesee River, both upriver around the modern city of Rochester and along the shores of Lake Ontario, never saw a battle, never had any significant military presence, and at best held only a minor level of strategic value. Despite these facts, the few inhabitants of this area faced constant threat of British plunder or invasion and had almost continuous 'visits' from both American and British forces during the extent of the war. Based on first hand accounts and primary source materials.
