Jerry Brown’s departure offers a unique chance to not only take a measure of his legacy but also of the history of modern California. Shortly before Christmas, I made my way up Interstate 5 to his family’s Rancho Venada — the sprawling ranch I wrote about a year earlier — for one last in-depth conversation before he left office. One thing was clear: Brown doesn’t sound like a man ready to walk away from politics. Elected office, probably; politics and political causes, unlikely.
