Aims & Scope
The Eastern Sierra History Journal focuses on the long history of the region, the Sierra’s eastern slope to the eastern California deserts. Among possible subjects the journal explores are the region’s complex Indigenous histories and the contemporary issues impacting tribal life; environmental history and social justice, Japanese-American internment, as well as agricultural and industrial development from the nineteenth century to the present. Other enduring themes include public-lands management, water quality and quantity, endangered species, recreation, and population growth.
