Description:

For those who conjure up only surfboards and Disneyland when they think of Southern California, this book is an unusual find. From a young Native American boy's encounter with a bear in the 1600s to the Malibu fire of 1996, Noelle Sullivan explores California stories spanning three centuries that are unexpected and heartwarming, sad and thrilling. The 30 accounts include stories of the ladybugs that saved this state's orange crop, the lone woman of San Nicolas Island, and the mystery of the fictional Oscar winner. Interesting for residents and visitors alike, It Happened in Southern California sheds a completely new light on the Golden State.
