{"product_id":"pacific-coast-highway-in-california-carina-monica-montoya-9781467127516","title":"Pacific Coast Highway in California","description":"More commonly known as Pacific Coast Highway, State Route 1 ribbons along or near the Pacific Ocean from Northern California at Leggett in Mendocino down to Southern California at San Juan Capistrano in Orange County. Its construction began in 1913 and was done incrementally, largely because of funding issues, shortage of labor, legal challenges, deep canyons, steep mountains, solid rock, and unstable earth. A true modern marvel, its unique and extraordinary construction allows easy access to some of the country's most famous and historical places and picturesque sights. Thousands of pounds of dynamite were used to blast through granite, marble, and sandstone to build a highway following near or along the coastline. Among the 33 bridges along the route is the remarkable Bixby (Rainbow) Bridge at Big Sur. The highway wends its way through some of the most magnificent and scenic landscapes and historical places found between Ventura and Humboldt Counties, making it more than just a road. It is a destination.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Carina Monica Montoya Forsythe\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1467127515\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781467127516\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Arcadia Publishing (SC)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/09\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 128\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.70lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.40w x 0.50d","brand":"Carina Monica Montoya Forsythe","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44048366141695,"sku":"9781467127516","price":23.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_23b09417-6813-411c-b8c8-972a0f204d83.jpg?v=1684995381","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/pacific-coast-highway-in-california-carina-monica-montoya-9781467127516","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
