Monterey, Cradle of California's Romance: The Story of a Lost Port That Was Found Again and a Dream That Came True is a historical book written by Grace MacFarland and published in 1914. The book tells the story of Monterey, a once-thriving port in California that was lost and forgotten for many years before being rediscovered and restored to its former glory.The book begins by describing Monterey's early history as a Spanish colonial settlement and its importance as a trading port in the 19th century. However, as time passed, the port fell into disuse and the town was largely forgotten by the rest of the state.The story then shifts to the efforts of a group of local residents who worked tirelessly to restore Monterey to its former glory. Through their hard work and dedication, the town was transformed into a popular tourist destination, complete with beautiful hotels, restaurants, and other attractions.Throughout the book, MacFarland weaves together a rich tapestry of historical facts, anecdotes, and personal stories to paint a vivid picture of Monterey's past and present. She also includes numerous photographs and illustrations to help bring the story to life.Overall, Monterey, Cradle of California's Romance is a fascinating and engaging look at the history of one of California's most important and beloved towns.
