California Water Atlas goes online

The Water Resources Center Archives at UC Berkeley has completed the digitization of the California Water Atlas (1979), which the Governor’s Office of Planning and Research authorized last August. The atlas is a detailed, lavishly illustrated description of water and water issues in California. When published in 1979, Charles Wollenberg in the California Historical Quarterly called it “a very big and beautiful book...well-written, spectacularly illustrated, and filled with useful information for expert and layman alike...an indispensable sourcebook for decades to come.” You can find it here.
