The story is a lively and anecdotal factual account and a cautionary tale of the local and national events that shaped the destiny of late 1900's forest product and fishing industries in Mendocino County and the world we live in. Thus it is a must read for anyone who longs for development of sustainable communities, who would avoid the mistakes of the past, and who would be a partner in the ultimate triumph of conservation.

A pictorial look back at a special time in a special place, a social history of the 1970s counterculture on the Mendocino Coast of northern California, with 160 pages and over 180 documentary photos. The limited first edition was sold out a week after release, becoming an instant rare book. The current First Revised Edition is the same book with a few errors and omissions corrected. "...Nicholas Wilson brings that era to blazing life once more. It's time travel at its funniest and most poignant.... Reading 'Mendocino In the Seventies' is a bittersweet visit to a time we imagined could last forever, but was gone in the space of a decade or so. ... If you can find a copy ... by all means grab it." -- Tony Miksak in Words On BooksRead the full review by longtime bookseller Tony Miksak in the archive at http://web.archive.org/web/20080514075418/http://www.gallerybookshop.com/bkm/wob061217.htmlFor complete details and sample photos see www.nwilsonphoto.com/book.htm

Driving Highway 1 along the Mendocino coast is a scenic adventure that draws thousands of visitors every year. Following the coast from Gualala on the south to Needle Rock in the north can be a challenge and features back-road driving. But imagine 100 years ago. Were there roads then too? How did people move along the coast? And what were they doing? Why did they settle here? Forget the Gold Rush and the forty-ninersÃ--timber was king here. Logging, milling, and shipping wood was the focus of the economy. Railcars steamed through the forests, and ships pulled up to rickety landings to load shipments for faraway places. Today some coast views remain the same, while others have changed dramatically, and whole towns have vanished over the century.
