Synopsis :

California? Weird? Just ask anyone who ever went to a Grateful Dead concert. Millions of Europeans visit California every year, and they find weirdness everywhere. But that's just normal weirdness. Imagine if they had this book. "Weird California", the latest addition to the "Weird US" series, is packed with the strange things to see that other guide books don't know - or don't dare tell. From the Pitch Monster of La Brea to the ghost of Elvis (yes, he really is dead), from the biggest pineapple in the world to the smallest museum in America, there are enough weird people, creatures, happenings and places to fill a country, never mind a state. But then, just look at who they elected governor...

Présentation de l'éditeur: Eureka! Thats the state motto of California and means 'I have found it.' Do many people actually know this? California is definitely the land of sun, surfing and serious weirdness. The Golden State has a huge number of strange people, haunted houses and bizarre sites. The authors of this book set out to travel the highways, byways and back roads in search of the odd and the offbeat. Whether its a Man Dog, an airplane graveyard or a city of Lizard People, these authors have researched and chronicled the stories and present them here for the fellow admirers of the weird. The brand-new entry in the best-selling Weird U.S. series, Weird California is packed with all that great stuff your history teacher wouldnt teach you. So join our authors on their great adventure.
