Hayward: The Heart of the Bay

by Banning Fenton

The Heart of the Bay traverses the history of this east San Francisco Bay community from its beginnings as home of the Ohlone people to its entrance into the 21st century as a 125-year-old city. The journey includes a view of the mission and rancho periods, the California Gold Rush, the arrival of William Hayward and Faxon Atherton, railroads, earthquakes, agriculture, tourism, and the development of business, manufacturing and high-tech industries - all the events and changes that make the history of Hayward fascinating.
