Barnes & Noble to Host Book Signing for Surfing in Huntington Beach

HUNTINGTON BEACH, Calif. - May 6, 2019 - PRLog -- Barnes & Noble to Host Book Signing for Surfing in Huntington Beach

Local author Mark Zambrano will be available to sign copies of book

Officially known as Surf City USA®, Huntington Beach is a surf town like no other. Ever since Hawaiian transplant George Freeth "walked on water" beside the famous Huntington Beach Pier in 1914, the city has had a storied relationship with surf culture that endures to this day.

Combining a rough-and-tumble working-class spirit leftover from the city's epic oil boom with its role as a popular beach resort destination, Huntington Beach has produced some of surfing's most memorable personalities and moments.

From legendary surfing heroes to long-standing competitions and titans of industry, these vintage photographs trace the evolution of this once small seaside settlement into a West Coast surf mecca, where surfing truly is a way of life.
