Book Synopsis Eccentric California by : Jan Friedman

Download or read book Eccentric California written by Jan Friedman and published by Bradt Travel Guides. This book was released on 2005 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jan Friedman's Eccentric America proved that the most unlikely events and landmarks could become tourist attractions. This award-winning title is dedicated to the sheer lunacy of California and her citizens, covering the biggest, the best, the wackiest and weirdest of the state's people and places. From art-car and golf-cart parades to the Valentine's Day Sex Tour at the San Francisco Zoo; from a festival that moons Amtrak to a town with its own language; from obsessed collectors of Pez, yo-yos, and bananas to kitschy theme motels and a man who built a three-storey mountain out of hay, adobe, and old paint. Eccentric California takes an in-depth look at one very peculiar place.
