Everyone loves Laguna Beach; at least authors Foster J. Eubank and Gene Felder do, as well as everyone they know. It has long been an art colony, as indicated by city signs that read "Home of the Festival of Arts and Pageant of the Masters." The city's 23,000 residents work to protect its small-town atmosphere. Laguna Beach is now surrounded by 22,000 acres of protected natural open space that was originally part of Mexican land grants. In this volume, the authors show that much has changed, while much remains the same.

As one of the West Coast's most unique and beautiful resort cities, Laguna Beach has thrived as an enduring enclave of art culture, a destination of hidden beaches, and a coastline rich in natural wonders, which its officials and residents strive to maintain. Settlers arrived in the 1870s, and by the summer of 1918 Laguna's first art gallery opened, featuring works by a growing collective of local artists. Hundreds of visitors came on opening day and, in the next month, 2,000 more visited the small art gallery. In 1932, Laguna started what would become a world-renowned event called the Festival of the Arts and later added the equally famous Pageant of the Masters. Since its simple beginnings as a small village situated where Laguna Canyon opens onto the Pacific shoreline to the reason there are traffic jams on Coast Highway during hot-month weekends, this southern Orange County jewel has continued to be a great draw for beachgoers, painters, and nature lovers the world over.

Laguna Beach became famous as an artists' colony in the 1920s, infamous as a mecca for hippies and surfers in the 1960s, and it still attracts free spirits and seekers of beauty. Among those inspired by its light, landscape, and people is poet Sarah Koops Vanderveen. In Once by the Pacific, she captures the rhythms of real life in a much-mythologized place that is ultimately, in her words, quirky, lovely, and authentic. Includes work by world-renowned photographer John Van Hamersveld.

"Laguna Niguel is one of America's earliest master-planned communities. In 1958, the Boston-based real estate firm of Cabot, Cabot & Forbes began acquiring over 7,000 acres of sheep-grazing land in south Orange County that had been owned by ranchers, including the French Basque Daguerra family and the Moulton family. Prior to that, the property was the Rancho Niguel Mexican land grant and, earlier, a part of a Niguili Native American village. The Boston firm hired noted architect Victor Gruen as the master planner and brought in investors through the Pacific Coast Stock Exchange. In 1959, the Laguna Niguel Corporation was formed, and the development began. Ansel Adams was hired to provide the original photographs of the property; Ladd & Kelsey, William Pereira, and other noted mid-century modern architects designed the housing, schools, offices, and retail centers. This development's interesting and groundbreaking concepts set the stage for how communities were created in the last half of the 20th century."--Amazon.com

They earn the dreadful task of writing a two-page essay about what they find to be the hardest thing they have ever done.
