The ongoing debate over a state plan to construct a 36-foot underground tunnel below the Sacramento-San Joaquin River Delta to carry water to a reservoir in Alameda County has now been given the novelization treatment. Santa Cruz author Victoria Tatum, who swam in the Delta in her youth, tells a fictional story of a farmworker family’s fight over the tunnels in “More Than Any River.” The book will be published March 24. … Tatum said she emerged as “a water nerd” by the end of the research. “More Than Any River” focuses on farming families along the Delta standing their ground against the agribusiness owners of the Delta tunnel project.
