Barnes & Noble to Host Book Signing for Point Loma

SAN DIEGO - Dec. 5, 2016 - PRLog -- Barnes & Noble to Host Book Signing for Point Loma

Local authors from the La Playa Trail Association will be available to sign copies of book

From the arrival of Juan Rodriguez Cabrillo in 1542 to the current world-class yachtsmen and women, San Diego's beautiful natural harbor hugs the peninsula of Point Loma and boasts a significant past. The strategic location of Point Loma has been home to both military defense and business genius. The fishing fleets of the Chinese and Portuguese communities earned the Roseville area of Point Loma the nickname "Tunaville." Today, Point Loma is one of San Diego's most historic neighborhoods; a destination for culture, fine dining, and sportfishing; and host to important military bases.  Visitors from around the world enjoy spectacular vistas and waterfront views of the Pacific Ocean, harbor, city, and islands and mountains of Mexico from atop the peninsula at Cabrillo National Monument and Fort Rosecrans National Cemetery.

About the Authors:

La Playa Trail Association was founded in 2005 to carry on the work of earlier trailblazers who identified historic sites along the oldest commercial route in the western United States. Today, civic-minded members continue to refurbish, rededicate, and construct new commemorative markers along La Playa Trail. This book is authored by a collection of people knowledgeable about specific aspects of Point Loma history.
