The Sespe Wild: Southern California's Last Free River

Beschreibung

Fifty miles northwest of Los Angeles, Sespe Creek flows through some of the wildest territory in California. This work chronicles the author's exploration of this fantastic region - from the physical Sespe to its subsurface geology. It discusses both the Chumash people who first occupied it and the impact of Spanish and American settlers.
