Preservation in Print | Haunted Southern California
Join the California Preservation Foundation for a special, spooky Preservation in Print, a free lunchtime series for anyone interested in historic preservation, architecture, planning, history, and related fields. Each one-hour session features a conversation with the author or a key contributor of a recent preservation-related title. There’s no need to read the book in advance—whether you’ve read every page, browsed the photos, or are simply curious, you’re invited to join. The program includes a brief presentation by the guest author, followed by a Q&A with questions from CPF’s Education Committee lead and audience members.
About the Book: Haunted Southern California
(from publisher website)
Underneath a façade of sunshine and beaches lies a darker side of Southern California.
From the Vallecito Stage Stop deep in the desert where a phantom bride eternally seeks her lost love to the town of Lone Pine where the shades of US Cavalry and Paiute natives still battle for land rights, Southern California is haunted by its sordid past. Ghosts relive their days of fun at Universal Studios and Disneyland and remember their days sailing on the majestic RMS Queen Mary in Long Beach. Even her Missions host the spirits of the long-departed.
Join author Brian Clune as he uncovers the spooky side of Southern California.
