Their collaboration forms a compelling journey equally strong in words and images." -Mark Klett, School of Art, Arizona State University "Early last century, writer-photographer J. Smeaton Chase and literary landscapist Mary Austin made pilgrimages along the pristine shores of California.

The result is a fascinating and unique portrayal of the California coast."- Kevin Starr, University of Southern California "These photos are beautiful, surprising and thoughtful. By visualizing the coast as a whole, this book helps us think bioregionally, and such large-scale thinking will, hopefully contribute to the coast's preservation." -Robert Dawson, co-author of The Great Central Valley: California's Heartland
