A fisherman on the Santa Monica Pier. The vineyards of Napa Valley. Surfers in Malibu. An Indian village in Yosemite and the Golden Gate Bridge at sunset. Artist Diana Gessler captures the color and character of our third largest and most populous state. In lively watercolors, sketches, and stories, Gessler shares her adventures on the road, driving from north to south--Sonoma to San Diego and beyond. She and her husband, Paul (designated driver and food lover), stop when curiosity or hunger seizes them. With pen and brush, Gessler works on the spot, bringing to life the cities, towns, and countrysides as well as the details that make them special. A great horned owl. A local farm stand. A woman making tortillas on a sidewalk cart. A bunkhouse in the redwoods. Crab traps along the bay. Her intimate journal is filled with colorful people, beaches, flowers, architecture, animals, trails, memorable meals, and movie stars (at least the gates in front of their houses). Very California is organized by region, and each chapter opens with a map and driving route of the area. Peppered throughout are amusing tidbits about all the things that make California so very California. Diana Gessler has created a memento for tourists and an enchanting book for those who appreciate the pleasures of the West Coast.

Second edition, second printing of Farnham's account of California travel, first published in 1844 as Travels in the Californias, and scences in the Pacific Ocean (New York, 1844-1845), issued in four parts. This is the second edition under this new title, following the first which appeared in 1846. There were many revised, enlarged, and re-worked issues under a variety of titles; the 1850 edition extended to 514 pages. In 1839 Farnham was living in Peoria, Illinois, where he heard Jason Lee lecture on the Oregon mission Lee had founded. Subsequently Farnham led the Peoria Party to Oregon, where Farnham petitioned the U.S. government to annex Oregon to defend the interests of Americans in the area. Farnham's account of this phase of his travels was published as Travels in Oregon Territory (1842). Farnham then embarked on a voyage to the Sandwich Islands, and then to Monterey in California, arriving April 18, 1840. He became involved in the Graham Affair, and travelled to Baja California to secure the release of American, British, and Californio citizens who had been arrested by Governor Juan Alvarado for plotting a revolt against the Mexican government. These adventures, including historical sections on Baja California and the recent history of Alta California, are contained in the text of this volume, which is also a sequel to Travels in Oregon Territory.

The great world traveler and writer Trevor Summons has decided to settle down in Southern California and conduct all his subsequent literary expeditions here. Summons is now the region's tour guide of choice. He leads readers not only on visits to the well-known attractions, but also on journeys of discovery to hidden locations that are even more fascinating. This collection of some of his best articles must be considered the new travel bible that belongs in the car, motorcycle, backpack, suitcase and bookshelf of anyone who wishes to explore the Golden State's glittery half. John Weeks, Features Editor L.A.N.G. (Retd!) Trevors Travels (in Southern California) is the result of 15 years of a weekly column published each Sunday in the San Bernardino Sun and other newspapers in the Los Angeles Newspaper Group (L.A.N.G.) Each piece is an account of a location recommended for a day visit. S. California has a great deal to offer both resident and visitor. From museums and art galleries to the many beautiful outdoor locations, the area has it all and you dont have to worry too much about the weather! The 150 places herein range from the eerily named but interesting Museum of Death to the awe-inspiring Getty, and from the Living Desert in Palm Springs to the relaxing beach of Marina Del Rey.

"Schaeffer was a miner who kept a record of his three-year journey to and from California by way of South America and Mexico. He sailed from New York in March 1849 on the ship Flavius and stopped in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, and Valparaiso, Chile, before reaching San Francisco in September. He worked a number of mines around middle and northern California and sailed for the tropics several more times before arriving back in New York in June of 1852"--
