1965 California's Historical Monuments Book PG & E Governor Brown TH8
Preface
Spread in an irregular pattern over the 700 mile length of California are 42 official State Historical Monuments. They vary in size and shape from a tiny adobe house to a castle of unsurpassed grandeur.
They memorialize the gentle Serra, the fiery Pio Pico, a determined Bidwell, the beloved Will Rogers, the benevolent Sutter and a kindly Vallejo. Two are monuments which recreate centuries of Indian civilization. Two recall the restless wander-ings and the brilliant pens of Jack London and Robert Louis Stevenson.
The thousands of visitors yearly to these historic shrines find
Christian missions and a Taoist Joss House, silent ghost towns and the rebuilt Palace of Fine Arts of the glamorous Panama Pacific Exposition.
This book has been produced as a public service by Pacific Gas and Electric Company in answer to thousands of requests from persons who first saw the material...
