Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I purchased this book to help explore the California coast. There is a section on the Palos Verdes Peninsula--I travel that route on my daily commute so I was hoping to find out about details about the area. But there are only a few things highlighted from each area. So it wasn't much for someone who is local.
On the other hand, I know many people who have been to Los Angeles, even some who have lived here, that had no idea about the beautiful coastline between the beach cities and the Port. So, the book would definitely highlight a little known backroad right in Los Angeles. (I use it for my commute because there is no traffic which makes it faster than the freeways!)
The photos are beautiful and I am glad I purchased this book.

From sprawling beaches to dramatic cliffs, the landscapes carved out by the mighty Pacific Ocean have been a destination for adventure and discovery since the earliest Spanish explorers arrived in the 1600s. While here and there the coastal wilderness has given way to California's largest and most cosmopolitan cities, the backroads and mountain lanes afford countless opportunities to experience the quiet of nature or explore the history of centuries-old communities. Visit sleepy fishing villages and historic landmarks of the Old West; hike through lush wilderness and fish in clear mountain streams; or catch some waves at one of the many pristine beaches along California's glorious coastline.
With glorious color photography and detailed descriptions, maps, and directions, Backroads of the California Coast offers two dozen fascinating and scenic journeys through some of the nation's most glorious landscapes.
