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.
