Newport! (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781491814505)

"It got me thinking about the hundreds of years of Newport Beach history. It made me excited about from where they came. Hail Chinigchinich " --Tom Johnson, former publisher of the Daily Pilot and Newport Beach Independent "Reading this epic is like riding in a time machine from the first Indians in the area through the Spanish, Mexican and American settlements in the 20th Century. Through a series of short stories, Davis weaves his opus with suspense, conflict, humor, romance, heroes, betrayal, murder and hope. It reads like a TV mini-series because of his vivid, descriptive, often conversational and colorful writing." --Chris MacDonald, seecalifornia.com "Old-time fans of "Dallas" or "Dynasty" will appreciate how the stories of family betrayal, illegitimacy and murder are played out here in our own community." -Keith Curry, Former Mayor of Newport Beach, CA "James Michener, move over " --John Tobin, Western Australia
