Publisher Description: In 1877, the Southern Pacific Railway laid lines from Goshen to Coalinga. The passageway crossed a Chinese sheepherder's camp, and thus began a city now nearing a population of 60,000. Today, Hanford is brimming with citizens working to maintain the genuine look and historical feel of the little town that was born well over a century ago. |
