Book excerpt: This is the story of two small towns, Bolinas and Stinson Beach, and the body of water that separates and joins them. Although San Francisco's packed urban skyline is visible from its shores, this part of West Marin is isolated in spirit and in fact. For thousands of years the territory of the Coast Miwok Indians, this land became the six-mile-long Briones Mexican land grant, a ranch that lasted less than a decade before being overrun with entrepreneurs, farmers, and failed gold miners. The towns that they built have been visited by earthquake, shipwreck, forest fires, ranchers, rumrunners, bohemians, and the National Park Service, and all of these have shaped their story. While Bolinas maintained its spirit of isolation, removing the road sign that might beckon visitors, Stinson Beach grew from a tent camp for urban refugees to a favorite coastal beach town visited by millions annually.

Book excerpt: "In celebration of the 50th anniversary of its publication, The Song Cave presents an expanded edition of the City Lights Books classic and long out of print On the Mesa: An Anthology of Bolinas Writers. This is a gathering of poets, writers and artists living on or around the mesa in Bolinas, California. Not so much a school as a meeting of those who happened to be at this geographical location at this wobbly point in time, several divergent movements in American poetry (Black Mountain, San Francisco Beat, 'New York School' of poets) have come together with new Western and mystic elements at the unpaved crossroads of Bolinas"--

Book excerpt: In 1966, Rebecca Wilson's father, a Union Leader and civil rights activist, was assassinated on the street in San Francisco. Rebecca—known throughout as "Becky"—was three years old. A House with No Roof is Wilson's gripping memoir of how the murder of her father propelled her family into a life–long search for solace and understanding. Following her father's death, Becky's mother, Barbara, desperate for closure and peace, uproots the family and moves to Bolinas, California. In this small, coastal town of hippies, artists, and "burnouts," the family continues to unravel. To cope, Barbara turns to art and hangs a banner that loudly declares, "Wilsons are Bold." But she still succumbs to her grief, neglecting her children in her wake. Becky's brother turns to drugs while her beautiful sister chooses a life on the road and becomes pregnant. As Becky fumbles and hurtles toward adulthood herself, she comes to learn the full truth of her father's death—a truth that threatens to steal her sanity and break her spirit. Told with humor and candor—and with love and family devotion at its heart—A House with No Roof is a brave account of one daughter's struggle to survive.

This book was released on 2017-06-24 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Bolinas-Fairfax Road is unquestionably one of the most scenic roads anywhere. Its hundreds of serpentine turns wind from Fairfax in Marin County, just north of San Francisco, through redwood forests and grassy meadows along sparkling Alpine Lake, climbing a steep mountain ridge to sweeping views of the ocean, before plunging down to Bolinas on the Pacific coast. Beloved by photographers and those who make car commercials, it has been a popular drive for stagecoaches, cars, motorcycles, and bicycles for almost 140 years. It also provides access to scores of popular hiking trails and the heights of Mount Tamalpais. While the road is well known to locals, few know its history - when and why it was built, and by whom. They do not know that it did not originally go to Fairfax at all, but to San Rafael. Built in 1878 by Chinese laborers, it was the subject of anti-Asian vigilante threats. It had extensions to San Rafael and the summit of Mount Tamalpais. A whole series of stagecoach lines, driven by skilled and remarkable characters, provided a crucial transportation link across the county. Intimately tied to the history of Marin County and its water wars, the road was rerouted many times as dams and reservoirs were built. It was also the scene of runaway coaches, landslides, bridge collapses, forest fires, earthquakes, overturns, holdups, and encounters with bears and enraged stags. Compiled and meticulously researched by local historian Brian K. Crawford, with ample assistance by many librarians and historians, this book tells the remarkable story of this spectacular road. Illustrated with many maps and historical photographs, and directions on visiting the historic sites along the road.
