StaniStory: Change and Continuity in Stanislaus County

StaniStory: Change and Continuity in Stanislaus County is a survey history of the county. Authored by Keith Highiet and David Seymour in 2023, it is based on the original 1941 landmark work by Joseph Burton Vasché, and is the first update in more than forty years to a local county-wide history curriculum. Created for third-grade teachers to guide their students through, the book is also appropriate for use by older learners (including adults!). The selection includes post-reading assessments and activities.

We hope you enjoy StaniStory,
