Book Description
Once beckoning to ocean-weary sailors, the lighthouses of the Pacific Coast still stand as beacons to adventurous travelers. Let this beautifully illustrated book conduct you to these classic lighthouses and treat you the fascinating stories behind these picturesque structures and the keepers who served in them. Along with the history of the lighthouses’ development and service, the book also delves into their technological evolution, with special attention to the architecture, the actual lights and lenses, and today’s movement to preserve and restore them. A breathtaking and edifying tour page by page, the book is also an ideal, informative guide for those who wish to venture into the living history of these coastal lighthouses.

Book Description
“The landscape of monotony is elsewhere,” Jack Newcombe writes, and the routes he traces through the vineyards, towns, and parkland of northern California—along with the variegated pleasures to be explored en route—bear the proof: • Mud baths and wine tasting in Calistoga • A view from the top at Mt. St. Helena • Wine touring, the slow and selective way, in the Napa and Sonoma valleys • “A Beer Experience” in Petaluma, and a dining treat at the New Boonvile Hotel • Whale watching on the Sonoma and Mendocino coasts • Walking the redwood forest trails • Finishing fleets and Victorian mansions in Eureka These attractions and more—and the colorful past that gave rise to them—are presented in Northern California: A History & Guide, an exciting, indispensable travel companion for a most spectacular region.
