For casual students of California history, there is a bookstore with titles on almost anything you would like to know about the state from its earliest days to the present. Featured too, are exhibits with fascinating odds and ends of daily life in California, including a horseless carriage (or so reads the license plate). Admission:$3 Adult; $1 Student/Senior
