While taking a critical look at the labor and social issues related
to timber, the story of labor, immigration, and development around
the San Francisco Bay region is told through the lens of an
archaeological case study of a major player of the timber industry
between 1885 and 1920. Timber, Sail, and Rail recounts the mill
operations and broadly examines its intersections with other
industries, such as shipping, brick manufacture, rail companies,
lime production, and other lesser enterprises. Three seasons of
archaeological fieldwork, as well as ethnography and regional
archival work, are examined to emphasize technological and labor
components at the historic Loma Prieta mill.
