Review

For stunning coastline, it's hard to beat northern California. Photographer Larry Ulrich has captured the color and atmosphere of the mist-covered rocks, towering redwoods, quirky sea creatures, spectacular sunsets and more in the book, "Big Sur to Big Basin, California's Dramatic Central Coast. " Here you'll find all the pictures you had in mind but didn't quite get when you drove the same highway. Writer Pamela Verduin Cain explores the coastal paths and scenic highways, the cute shops and trendy galleries, plus Pebble Beach, Monterey's aquarium and Santa Cruz's 90-year-old amusement park. It's a coffee table book that might inspire you to visit or encourage you to reminisce about a trip you've already taken to one of America's most beautiful areas.
