DESCRIPTION:Harvey L. Smith has been researching this part of Berkeley’s history for 
 more than two decades. The images in this volume have been selected from 
 local and national archives and from the author’s contemporary 
 photographs of the living legacy of the New Deal.\n\nLike the heritage of 
 the New Deal in San Francisco, Berkeley’s 1930s and early 1940s New Deal 
 left a lasting legacy of utilitarian and beautiful infrastructure. These 
 public buildings, schools, parks, and artworks helped shape the city and 
 thus the lives of its residents. It is hard to imagine Berkeley without 
 them. The artists and architects of these projects mention several themes: 
 working for the community, responsibility, the importance of government 
 support, collaboration, and creating a cultural renaissance.\n\nThese New 
 Deal projects, however, can be called “hidden history” because their 
 legacies have been mostly ignored and forgotten. Comprehending the impact 
 of the New Deal on one American city is only possible when viewed as a 
 whole. More than history, this book shows the period’s relevance to 
 today’s social, political, and economic realities. The times may again 
 call for comprehensive public policy that reaches Main Street. \n
