California Legacy SL #2: Desert by Mary Austin

The California Legacy Project at Santa Clara University is dedicated to preserving Californias unique culture through our book series, radio productions and now through the virtual world of Second Life.
Currently, California Legacy has published almost 40 books with our publishing partner, Heyday Books.
With KAZU Public Radio, 90.3 Pacific Grove, we have produced nearly 500 radio segments.
Coming soon is the special two hour public radio series "Nature Dreaming".

This second episode is an excerpt from Mary Austin's 1903 collection "The Land Of Little Rain".

shame on me: i forgot to mention Gary Noy from Sierra College, who was instrumental for this project by supplying us with historical photos. Without them, the avatar and the clothing would not have looked so fantastic! Thank you Gary & i promise to give you a big shoutout in the next credits :)
