About this title

Synopsis

Are you tired of the same old tourist traps? Do you relish the thought of taking the road less travelled, discovering the hidden attractions, and unspoilt locations that other travel guides just don't offer? "Off the Beaten Path - Northern California" presents readers with all the tools and information they need to discover the very best of the Golden State - from the Whiskey Flat Saloon in Volcano, which was established in 1862, through Vikingsholm, a Scandinavian style mansion near Lake Tahoe, to Niles, the movie-making capital of California before Hollywood was even on the map. This will become an indispensable guide for anyone who wants to truly discover the culture, history, and attractions that make this one of the world's best-loved holiday destinations.

Store Description

I have a large inventory of children's books, cookbooks, collectibles, classics, first editions, signed books, history, biographies, science, textbooks, and more. Each book to me is a "precious jewel" and I try and describe it, giving you a good understanding of its content, and also its condition. One example, I have a John Muir book where he has written in the margins all through it to correct mistakes made by the publisher. (this was confirmed by John Muir historic site for me) I have over 50,000 books and some are quite rare from 1800's to 2020's. I've been collecting books for over 50 years and now am a spry 80 and going strong. I try and get books out same day as order comes in and love it when someone writes that they's been looking for a book for years and finally found it with me!
