This is so much more than just an average travel book that only covers the major tourist attractions. This book is designed to help you slow down and enjoy the rich diversity of California. There are many interesting places to see and things to do in the vast state that are not listed in conventional travel guides. There are many off the beaten path and unconventional places that are still well worth visiting. To make it fun, I have arranged the attractions by themes. I call them travel quests. Think of them as “bucket lists” for travelers. Instead of trying to see all of California in one big gulp, the state’s many fascinating sites have been broken up into a series of travel goals along a similar theme.

"California Travel Quests"
Author:  Richard Di Giacomo

For years, rumors of the "Marsh Girl" have haunted Barkley Cove, a quiet town on the North Carolina coast. So in late 1969, when handsome Chase Andrews is found dead, the locals immediately suspect Kya Clark, the so-called Marsh Girl. But Kya is not what they say. Sensitive and intelligent, she has survived for years alone in the marsh that she calls home, finding friends in the gulls and lessons in the sand. Then the time comes when she yearns to be touched and loved. When two young men from town become intrigued by her wild beauty, Kya opens herself to a new life--until the unthinkable happens.
