EDIBLE AND MEDICINAL PLANTS OF
THE SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA COAST

| California: beautiful beaches, lovely coastal mountains, endearing climate, charming multicultural masses--the true melting pot of our country--thriving economic Mecca, new age crucible, concrete jungle, heartless and heartwarming; Nice place to visit but I wouldn't want to live there. | Reckless development encroaching on the last pristine places, highway 23 to Malibu. Progressive movements in the immigrant society may sting the once dominant white culture into action: an enlightened environmental movement is necessary to make this place whole and healthy again. |
