Trade Review
"This is the volume to toss in the back of your Volkswagen bus with the folding chair, the Mexican blanket, the Frisbee and your lucky old abalone shell... It will answer all your questions about fat innkeeper worms, the romantic impulses of Richard Henry Dana Jr., and why you can run faster than you swim." Los Angeles Times "Books To Go" "Anyone planning a drive down the California coast should take one, or all, of these books along." Portland Oregonian "An ideal guide for the getaway season." Chico Enterprise-Record "The guide will tell you where to camp, where to find a bathroom, [and] where to view wildlife." Placerville Mountain Democrat "The ideal guide for your coastal adventuring... Keep this book in your car and you'll never be at a loss about where to go." Myshelf.com "The ideal guide for your coastal adventuring...
