The story of six generations of a family that helped settle and expand a small community just south of Sacramento is one of change. Yet it illuminates the similarities of today's westerners to those who came in centuries past. Every custom, attitude and success of today has its roots in what adventurous seekers first brought to the flood plains of the river delta. This is the story of just one family that experienced the growth, heartache, and joys of living along the river in a community of hardworking, self-sufficient and visionary people. Starting in 1850 and tracing the generations to the Twenty-First century, RIVER PEOPLE presents an interesting and accurate portrait of the progeny of Abraham Moses Hanion.
