For parents, grandparents, caregivers, and day care or nursery school teachers. And, it makes a great baby shower gift!

Product Description

Although Southern California’s mountain ranges are only partially wilderness, they bring wonder into our daily lives even from a distance. I wrote this book to remind us of this wonder, to champion the mountains’ beauty and inspire their protection. In addition, I wrote this book for people around the world to know a seldom heralded dimension of Southern California. Several years ago I couldn’t find such a book to show Swiss friends. Also I’ve always wanted to show our mountains’ beauty to friends and relatives across the country, to come and visit them vicariously. “Call of the Mountains” is for you who can’t get to the mountains, but glimpse them from afar and feel their wonder. Last, I wrote this book for you who already know these streams, canyons and peaks. For you, the following pages will jog memories of special places and occasions that are yours alone. My Story - and the stories of people I met - takes us along trails to historic areas, sparkling waterfalls, pristine meadows and the highest peaks.
