Description

Tejon Ranch is a California treasure, hidden in plain sight. The state's largest contiguous expanse of private land, Tejon Ranch has remained virtually in tact since its formation under a Mexican land grant in 1843, even though it is less than an hour's drive from Greater Los Angeles. Featuring the work of famed western photographer Carleton Watkins, the photographs and historical narrative presented in this book celebrates the incomparable beauty and historic richness of the treasure that is Tejon Ranch.
