David Vokac's book, The Great Towns of Southern California, is a must, whether you use it as a destination guide or to consult it when you are passing nearby one of his "great towns." It is the perfect traveling companion.

When you are driving through So.California, rather than have an ordinary experience along the way, go the extra distance and spend a night and have a meal in a "great town." For example, drive a mere 10 miles off Highway 101 and visit Ojai, a charming little village in the Ventura/Santa Barbara area that also has appealing lodging and restaurants.

You don't have to settle for the mundane with this book!

I am a southern California native and can attest to the fact that there are nice "getaway" places just a few hours, at the most, from Los Angeles or San Diego. I myself have visited most of these towns and have fond memories of them. Mr. Vokac includes much pertinent information relating to climate, points of interest, restaurants and lodgings. He even tackles the subject of permanent residency in these towns, as a service to those contemplating retirement. An indispensable guide for those wanting to know the southern California behind the glitz.
