Welcome to the Golden State, a land of giant trees, Hollywood dreams, and legendary fortunes! Did you know that the state's animal, the mighty grizzly bear, no longer roams its forests but lives on through its flag? Or that California's name is believed to come from a mythical island paradise? From the Gold Rush that shaped a nation to the secrets of the "inescapable" Alcatraz prison, this book takes you on a journey through the epic history and breathtaking nature that make California a place of wonder.
But the adventure is just getting started! Discover how the world's first blue jeans were invented for miners, why it's illegal to molest butterflies in one town, and how the first message on the internet was a crash. Learn the secrets behind the California Roll, the first Apple computer built in a garage, and the official state sport of surfing. Packed with 100 amazing facts, this book is your ticket to the quirky, innovative, and sun-soaked soul of California.
