Ione and the Jackson Valley (Images of America: California)

By Deborah Coleen Cook

Book Overview

Nestled between the plains of the Sacramento Valley and the foothills of the Sierra Nevada Mountains, on the western margin of Amador County, is the beautiful region surrounding Ione and the Jackson Valley. Described as two of the most attractive and fertile areas of the Central Sierra region, both have been home to farmers, ranchers, and merchants for more than 150 years. From the thriving little town of Ione to the "four corners" gathering place known as Buena Vista, the region remains a favorite for residents and tourists alike. Recreational
attractions such as the historic Preston Castle and Lakes Camanche, Pardee, and Amador lure visitors from both near and far.
