The only book of its kind, Cate Culver documents the history of Sonora Pass and its residents from 1860 to 1960, with extensive interviews of cabin owners, and research into the region's history. The book is more poignant now than ever, as fire ravaged the area in 2018, and so many of the original cabins, and a historic resort, were lost.

Autorenporträt
Cate Culver makes her home in California's Sierra foothills. After her twenty-five-year career in Oakland and Sacramento as a graphic artist in advertising, she and her husband Jerry relocated to Mountain Ranch in Calaveras County, where she pursued her passion for painting, capturing the natural grace and power of the California region. They now reside in Tuolumne County. The family summer cabin of Cate's childhood located at Dardanelle on Sonora Pass inspired her to write her first book. The Untold History of Sonora Pass and Its People: 1860 to 1960 chronicles the fascinating hundred years of development along Sonora Pass and the unforgettable people who put their stamp on the land. Cate served as Calaveras County's historian for eleven years, developing her skills for meticulous research. As a graphic artist, Cate designed every page in the book and included some of her original art. Combined with her natural curiosity and primary source interviews, she brings life to the towering beauty of the Sonora Pass and the intrepid spirit of its people.
