Hardcover. Etat : Fair. 3rd printing. (no dust jacket) [front hinge broken, although otherwise only modestly shelfworn; folding map is NOT present in rear pocket]. (American Guide Series) Series (B&W photographs, maps) Comprehensive guide to the history, culture, commerce and geography of California. Includes chapters on individual cities and towns: Berkeley, Fresno, Hollywood, Long Beach, Los Angeles, Monterey, Oakland, Pasadena, Sacramento, San Diego, San Francisco, San Jose, Santa Barbara, Stockton. There are numerous prescribed "Tours," as was standard with this excellent series, including special tour sections devoted to Death Valley National Monument, Sequoia and General Grant National Parks, and Yosemite National Park, as well as to the Golden Gate International Exhibition -- although one does wonder, with wartime gasoline rationing in effect at the time of this printing, how many people were actually able to get out on the road and take advantage of this feature. Most of the photographs in the book are not credited to individual photographers, although Horace Bristol's name is attached to a few, and there is a single shot (of some anonymous and dunes) attributed to Bret Weston. Includes: chronology, a select reading list; index. The text appears to be identical to the first (1939) printing. ****NOTE that additional postage charges will be assessed for international shipping of this moderately heavy book; if this concerns you, please contact us for a shipping quote before placing your order.
