Synopsis

Mention Hope Ranch to old-time Santa Barbarans and they immediately think of Harold Chase. Harold Chase succeed where so many others failed. He planned an ideal community nearly 70 years ago and guided its development for 40 years. It is still successful 23 years after his death. In 1963 Chase wrote his original book, "Hope Ranch - a rambling record" to tell the story of the Ranch's evolution. The Hope Ranch Park Homes Association has now republished Chase's book as a 30th Anniversary Edition to make readily available once again a major portion of Hope Ranch's colorful past. Chase published his book at the age of 73, the year after he sold his financial interest in the Ranch. This edition had to be totally recreated from the original 1963 edition, complete with computer enhanced typeface and photostatically reproduced images of the maps and handwritten documents included in his original volume. The text, from the 1963 edition, is complete and faithful to Chase's style.
