Secret Sonoma: A Guide to the Weird, Wonderful, and Obscure
How can the "father of the California wine industry" still be walking around after more than 160 years? Why do thousands of beer lovers flock to Sonoma County from across the US once a year? Where can we play "top gun" in a real fighter jet? And why are Snoopy, Woodstock, and all the Charlie Brown gang standing around all over the place?

Countless curiosities, icons and hidden treasures fill the pages of Secret Sonoma: A Guide to the Weird, Wonderful, and Obscure. From hidden beaches on a world-famous coastline to wineries unknown even by oenophiles, from the tallest trees on the planet and NASCAR stars to rollicking tales of 18th and 19th century California, this is your ticket to adventure and surprises in the California Wine Country.

A veteran author and Sonoma County native, Karen Misuraca reveals her deepest, darkest secrets of where she sees ghosts of centuries past, buys fetishes to vanquish her enemies, and bellies up to the bar in Gold Rush-era roadhouses. Where does she fly through the treetops, stargaze through powerful telescopes, and loll in geothermal hot springs?

Even if you and your friends have been here before, and especially if you live here, Secret Sonoma is your new book of wonders.

About the Author

Karen Misuraca grew up in Sonoma County before vineyards replaced the apple orchards, and before daytrippers discovered the rugged coastline and the deep redwood forests, the early California historic sites, and all those welcoming wineries. Today an award-winning travel journalist and guidebook author, she writes about the nooks, crannies, and quirky curiosities of the state for magazines, newspapers, and online media. Karen is also a specialist in international golf travel, and founder of DeepCultureTravel.com. She enjoys the backroads and beaches of Sonoma County with her husband, Michael, and her daughters, grandkids, and a great-grandtoddler.
