Book Synopsis True Tales of California Coastside State Parks by : JoAnn Semones
Book excerpt: The beautiful landscapes of central California's Coastside state parks were once home to forgotten pioneers and unique industries. The tumultuous personal life of Robert Mills didn't hinder his commitment to his dairy business in Half Moon Bay, now the Burleigh H. Murray Ranch State Park. And the Pigeon Point Light Station State Historic Park, named after a shipwreck, remains a beacon of architectural beauty more than a century later. From hideaways for freedom fighters rebelling against the Spanish to the site of several booming lumber operations, Coastside parks have long been an integral part of California's history. Join author JoAnn Semones as she explores the innovators and entrepreneurs behind these stunning parks.
