DUBLIN, Calif. - March 7, 2016 - PRLog -- Barnes & Noble to Host Book Signing for San Ramon Chronicles: Stories of Bygone Days

Local author, Beverly Lane, will be available to sign copies of book


San Ramon Chronicles is an addition to The History Press’ American Chronicles series. The book is by local author, Beverly Lane with the Museum of the San Ramon.

Though a relatively young city, San Ramon has history stretching back to California’s founding. Ohlone Indians first inhabited the area before rancheros grazed the land more than a century ago. Drawn by the Gold Rush, pioneers and prospectors settled the place promoters labeled a “Garden of Eden.” Diversified farming of the valley, full of orchards and plentiful fields, sustained the rural population. Sitting in the shadow of historic Mount Diablo, San Ramon is a growing city recognized for its extraordinary parks, schools and active citizenry. Local author Beverly Lane brings to life San Ramon’s vibrant past.
