Description
In 2005 Bob Henderson of the Puente Hills Landfill Native Habitat Preservation Authority contacted the CGU History department to offer funding for a study of the history of the land that became the Puente Hills preserve. Seven students who took part in the project discuss their research into the geology and environment of the preserve, the history of the Tongva who lived there, the region's colonization by the Spanish and Americans, and the grassroots activism that led to the acquistion of the preserve. The students discuss the difficulties faced in their search for primary and secondary documents, taking oral histories, and writing about living persons.
