The history of oranges in the United States begins with their introduction by Spanish missionaries to Florida and California in the 16th and 17th centuries. Orange farming later moved inland as explorers pushed westward. This book traces the expansion of the orange industry into the San Joaquin Valley of California, from the planting of the first commercial groves in the 1870s, through four major booms, and up to the present day. Along the way, the author discusses the spread of thrips and other pests as well as the legal challenges posed by corporate farming, water rights, and agricultural labor issues.
