Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the history and development of the Imperial Irrigation System, an extensive network of canals and ditches constructed to bring water from the Colorado River to the fertile lands of Imperial Valley in California. Built in the early 20th century, the system transformed a vast desert into one of the most productive agricultural regions in the United States. The author delves into the complexities of water rights, the challenges of constructing and maintaining the canals, and the impact of the system on the environment and society. Through archival research and interviews with key figures, the book sheds light on the resilience and ingenuity of the engineers and farmers who created this agricultural marvel, and examines the ongoing challenges and opportunities facing the Imperial Irrigation System in the 21st century.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book compiles the findings of a study conducted in early twentieth-century California to ascertain the mechanical efficiency and running costs of various water-pumping systems in use at the time. The study's primary focus is on gasoline, electric, and steam-powered pumps, and their respective fuel consumption, power usage, and water-lifting capacity were measured across dozens of pumping plants. The author takes care to describe the equipment setup and methodology of each test in detail, allowing readers to verify the results or replicate the study for their own purposes. In presenting this valuable historical data, the author contributes to our understanding of the evolution of water-pumping technology and provides a glimpse into the energy landscape of early 20th-century California, where innovative solutions were sought to meet the challenges of water scarcity and distribution. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores one of the biggest engineering challenges of the late 19th and early 20th centuries: developing an efficient irrigation system at Pomona, California. Pomona was one of the first locations in California to experience difficulties in supplying a growing population with water. This book details the engineering feats and technological advancements used to irrigate the area. The author explains how the introduction of pumping machinery was essential to the continued agricultural development of Pomona and the wider citrus belt of southern California, and was a precursor to similar developments around the world. It also delves into the social, economic, legal, and institutional responses to the scarcity of water, such as the formation of water companies and the development of water rights. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.
