"This book is the most comprehensive work ever produced documenting the people, places, and events of Three Rivers and Kaweah Country."--Kaweah Commonwealth newspaper, John Elliott, Editor, 2017.
Earl A. McKee, Jr. is a great story teller and having lived his eighty-five years in Three Rivers, California, he has a lot of stories to tell. Reading his first book "Echoes of Blossom Peak" is like sitting around a campfire and listening to Earl talk about the mountains and people he loves.In "Echoes of Three Rivers," Earl spins his tales around landmarks that paint a living picture of the old days. Into his memories of raising horses and cattle and packing mules into the High Sierra, he weaves vivid portraits of pioneers, their visions and wild ventures that drew them here.Gaynor, Earl's wife, joins in telling her own story of dancing through life on a cattle ranch. Gaynor and Earl were toddlers when they first met and they've celebrated over sixty-five adventurous years of marriage. With creative flair and clever wit, Gaynor cooked for cowhands, raised a family, trained dancers, and taught school. Their humor is contagious, their musical talents exceptional. Springtime jazz festivals that echo in the canyons of the Kaweah had its start on their old ranch.Three Rivers is a small community with a big history. Earl has packed a lot of interesting experiences and amazing adventures into "Echoes" to make it a fascinating and enjoyable read.
