Schuberts "Stumptown Stories" columns relates the history of this California river valley through in-depth research and firsthand stories. Ride the first train to chug across the Hacienda Bridge and wave farewell to the towns last train in 1935. Swing around in the many dance halls to the big bands of the 1930s; 40s and 50s. Let the entertaining stories behind once stately; now hidden; landmarks carry you into Stumptowns past. Reconnect over coffee at Pats Cafe and discover the rich history that formed the Russian Rivers communities.
