California Road Trip 1962 and Beyond exhibit-featuring Nut Tree, Disneyland and Roadtrips
This epic story of a world-famous restaurant spans the twentieth century and tells how a California ranch grew into a renowned destination. For seventy-five years, visitors came by land and later by air to dine, purchase fresh baked goods, candies, unique gifts, and to enjoy art and entertainment. This purely California tale will fascinate historians, designers, foodies, and anyone interested in how a small farm business grew into an iconic multi-million-dollar enterprise and became an integral part of California’s lore. While many journalists have written about the rich history of Nut Tree, one one has a written a five-generation retrospective. Diane Power Zimmerman writes from her perspective as a fifth-generation member of the founding families.
The Disneyland® Hotel: The Early Years 1954-1988 captures the amazing construction of this landmark resort and tells the story of how it became one of Southern California's premier destinations for family vacations. The book includes vintage photos, memorabilia, and a foreword by the son of the original owner of the hotel.
