The dramatic story of the salvation of the Marin headlands unfolds in Marty
Griffin's fascinating memoir, "Saving the Marin-Sonoma Coast." With sharp
insight and humor, Dr. Griffin documents the creation of the magnificent Audubon
Canyon Ranch wildlife preserves on Bolinas Lagoon and Tomales Bay and their
crucial role in rescuing the Pt. Reyes National Seashore, preserving
California's unspoiled North Coast, and transforming the political landscape of
Marin County.
Editor's Note: Life is strange. Now 40 years after saving Marin, some want to turn it into another urban corridor. We used to cherish our cities and suburbs, now outsiders from ABAG, housing advocates, and developers want to turn the entire 101 corridor, stretching 1/2 mile on either side of the highway into high density housing/offices. Nice. They will keep their leafy neighborhoods and weekend homes while the rest of us must have our property rights taken from us.
