This book is a nostalgic look back at a special time in a special place. It's a photographic social history of the 1970s alternative culture on the Mendocino Coast of northern California, with over 180 photos and 160 pages. The limited first edition of 200 numbered and signed copies sold out in a week, becoming an instant rare book. This current revised edition is the same book with some errors and omissions corrected.
"...Nicholas Wilson brings that era to blazing life once more. It's time travel at its funniest and most poignant.... Reading 'Mendocino In the Seventies' is a bittersweet visit to a time we imagined could last forever, but was gone in the space of a decade or so. ... If you can find a copy ... by all means grab it." -- Tony Miksak in Words On Books
