California Myths and Legends explores unusual phenomena, strange
events, and mysteries in California's history. From the head of
Zorro to the shadow god of California, this book makes history fun
and pulls back the curtain on some of the state's most fascinating
and compelling stories. * Will California fall into the Pacific?
Many believe that when the next big earthquake hits, the whole
state may just drop off into the ocean. Most experts dispute
this-but are they right? * Did William Randolph Hearst get away
with murder? Was Roaring Twenties producer Thomas Ince murdered
while attending his own birthday celebration aboard Hearst's
palatial party boat, the Oneida? * California's very own Pearl
Harbor. In World War II, antiaircraft gunners in Los Angeles had a
legendary shootout, but to this day no one knows whom they were
fighting. Some think the intruder that attracted their
attention-and as many as 1,400 high-explosive shells-was an alien
spacecraft.
