Description
Wildsam Field Guides: California leads travelers and locals alike deep into the beachy, deserty, mountainy, foodie, techie essence of the Golden State. A small army of authors, artists, chefs, scientists, technologists and historians will together paint a picture of the real California -- a place quite distinct from the one found in the popular imagination. Featuring the work of Daniel Duane, Gary Kamiya, Rachel Levin, Gustavo Arellano, Dana Johnson, Rachel Khong and others, this stylish and intimate guide will function as a literary companion to the state, from its funky bohemian enclaves to its glitzy Hollywood haunts, and the lesser-known realms in between.

About the Author
Taylor Bruce is the Founder and Editor-in-Chief of Wildsam Field Guides. He grew up on his family farm on the border of Georgia and Alabama. Taylor studied writing at Vanderbilt University, and, after, wrote freelance for magazines such as Men's Journal, Oxford American and National Geographic Adventure, among others. He took a full-time writer's post at Southern Living in 2007. After moving to New York and pursuing an MFA in Creative Writing at Brooklyn College, Taylor launched Wildsam out of his 500-square foot apartment in 2012. The original Nashville guide caught the attention of national media and thoughtful travelers alike, and in 2015, National Geographic awarded Wildsam the "Traveler 50" award. Taylor lives in Austin, Texas, with his wife, Robin, and two sons, Booker and Truett.
