LITERATURE
Hard Luck Coast - The Perilous Reefs of Point Montara
Presented by San Mateo County History Museum at San Mateo County History Museum
March 12, 2011
Author and maritime historian JoAnn Semones presents her second book about shipwrecks along the coast south of San Francisco, occuring between 1851 and 1946. California writer John Steinbeck referred to the treacherous strip of shore between Montara and Half Moon Bay as "the hard luck coast”. No ship was immune to the fury of coastal waves in heavy fog. The book is available for purchase and for signing after the presentation.
