Stagecoach Days in Santa Barbara County

$ 12.95
This illustrated book by Walker A. Tompkins takes a lighthearted look at the 40- year period between 1861 and 1901 when stagecoaches rolled over Gaviota and San Marcos passes to link the pioneer settlements of the county's coastal and inland valleys. Many of the century-old photographs have never been published. Meet the old-time stage drivers: visit the relay stations of long ago. You will find mirth and pathos in the true tales of highway robberies, along with legends of bygone days- all cemented into a solid background of facts researched by Santa Barbara's most prolific historian.
