Instead of finding one state of California, he found many, and after reading all 61 entries I concluded that they all echo the subtitle as being weird and wonderful.<\/p>\n<p>This book is the result of the luxury of a salary, an editor\u2019s carte blanche directive to \u201ccover the state\u201d, and a company automobile with a credit card! Sam McManis put that good fortune to good use, and the result is a thoroughly readable collection of craziness.<\/p>\n<p>To paraphrase Frank Lloyd Wright: If you tip the world on its side all the loose things will end up in California. Sam McManis seeks out the \u201cloose things\u201d in the deserts and hills and streets of California, and explores them with a facile intelligence and general good humor. I liked this book!<\/p>\n<p>OK, some things annoyed me: References to Frank Norris, shiny ink, the conceit of writing the LA noir piece in a noir voice, and a few points of even lesser consequence. Who cares? This is not a book to be read in one sitting, as I did. It was written to be read weekly \u2013 each 1200-1500 word epistle savored like the memory of your first kiss, or lingered over like your first glass of wine in the evening. They are that good.<\/p>\n<p>Some entries will give you a Jack Webb \u201cJust the facts, ma\u2019am\u201d take on a subject, while others will draw on a richly filigreed history to tell the tale. Some are couched in whimsy while others are more ironic. And through them all runs a thread of nostalgia, sometimes so thick as to be a rope, connecting the lurid, tawdry, brilliant, sublime, and fading memories of the past.<\/p>\n<p>From Ronald Reagan and the show \u201cTwenty Mule Team Borax\u201d, to the tacky \u201cHollywood Stars\u201d celebrity tour; and from an unrepentant fact-checking of Scientology, to a man\u2019s 40 year obsession with building an underground garden. \u00a0It\u2019s all here \u2013 every \u201cshit-house crazy\u201d idea, brilliant composition, and lofty dream are chronicled in the wry voice of a skilled observer who drops pop culture references like beads of sweat in a hot California summer.<\/p>\n<p>From the irreverence of his comments about a visit to \u201cPSYCHIATRY An Industry of Death Museum\u201d, McManis first said that the title was \u201cpoorly punctuated\u201d, then went on to add: \u201cA museum dedicated to maligning, possibly slandering, an entire healing profession? Count me in.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He also knows how to turn a phrase. Referencing the Mechanic\u2019s Institute Library, one of the most venerable of San Francisco\u2019s cultural centers, he says \u201c(its) a solid and stolid presence in a city that purports to cherish its history but too often dismisses it as blithely as a techie\u2019s finger swipe on a smartphone.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>I especially liked the selections on food. One piece was a paean to Pan Am Airlines\u2019 Golden Age. In March of 2015 Sam McManis had the incredible good fortune to partake of a typical meal in First Class in a refurbished and perfectly recreated 1970s era 747 airplane, replete with all the Mad-men-esque accoutrements and politically incorrect language. Champagne, shrimp, chateaubriand, and brandy; period uniforms, including hairdos, even the music and the in-flight magazines stuck to the theme of the last elegant era of flight. It read like an incredibly nostalgic and delicious experience.<\/p>\n<p>The book is littered with frequent references and quotes by authors and famous people. It is a reminder of how many literary greats and not so greats wrote screenplays for the film studios at some point in their careers, and how many famous people lived in California. It\u2019s a veritable who\u2019s-who of notable people of the 20<sup>th<\/sup> century: Mark Twain, Nathaniel West, Gertrude Stein, Jack London, William Saroyan, L. Ron Hubbard, Hopalong Cassidy, Charlton Heston, Orson Welles, Charlie Chaplin, Arnold Schwarzenegger . . . whew! It\u2019s an already seemingly endless list, and I\u2019m just getting started!<\/p>\n<p>All of them and more are found between the covers of Sam McManis\u2019 \u201cOn the Road\u201d tour of the \u201cGolden State\u201d. You\u2019ll need to read this book to see how these legendary people and so many others fit into the history of wonderful craziness that is our left coast \u2013 California.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCrossing California \u2013 A Cultural Topography of a State of Wonder and Weirdness\u201d by Sam McManis.<br \/>\nPublished by <a href=\"http:\/\/quilldriverbooks.com\/craven-street-books\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Craven Street Books<\/a>, an imprint of Linden Publishing, Inc.<br \/>\n6\u201d x 9\u201d\u00a0 295 pages with index and b&amp;w photos Paperback $14.95<\/p>\n<div class=\"bdaia-separator se-single\" style=\"margin-top:30px !important;margin-bottom:30px !important;\"><\/div>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small;\">DISCLAIMER: While Richard Frisbie sometimes receives products and\/or services for review, every effort is made to present an unbiased, objective and fair assessment of their capabilities and value.\u00a0 Please rate this review in the comment section below.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This book is Sam McManis\u2019 collection of newspaper columns for the Sacramento Bee, written while he was on the road searching for the \u201creal California\u201d.
