JOHN THOMAS WALTON
1937 – 2025"In a world moving at ever-increasing speed where some people’s grip on reality seems to be loosening, it’s useful to take a step back and slow down sometimes, to take a few moments and reflect on how #history gets made—it’s not just what happened, it’s what people say happened, and they are not always the same.” - David Schmalz

In this book he examined the historical formation and reformation of community in Monterey over a period of 230 years.”
