An Artist and a Writer Travel Highway 1 North

A unique literary and artistic guidebook to one of the world's most amazing drives--California State Highway 1, a narrow strip of roadway etched between cliffs and the ocean that leads travelers through the state's beautiful natural attractions. Lavishly illustrated with original watercolors that depict the glories of the California coast, this book takes an appealingly idiosyncratic perspective as the authors record their explorations off the beaten path, their serendipitous discoveries, and their reactions to the places and people they encounter. A contemplative mixture of captivating artistry and personal essay, this travelogue offers an accessible introduction to many little-known details of scenic California. AUTHORS: Pat Hunter, one of California's most recognised artists, is best known for her watercolour depictions of historical landmarks. Janice Stevens is an author and instructor of English literature, composition and creative writing.
