Publisher's Synopsis
". . . these stories present the colorful past of the San Mateo County Coastside in an original and authentic voice. Written for an audience of all ages, the legends blend fact and fiction in delightful proportion. Equal parts drama, humor, and adventure, they are richly illustrated with full-color rreproductions of the artist's innovative 'mosaic' paintings, which Wolf considered his best work. The stories are followed by a biographical sketch of Galen Wolf (1889-1976) written by the editor, and illustrated with dozens of color and black-and-white images." -- Book jacket flap.
