Synopsis : In Search of Alexander Hazard: The Man Who Planted the Eucalypts at Montaña de Oro <*READ*> B.O.O.K.

Alexander Hazard planted sixty to seventy acres of eucalyptus trees out on the Pecho, today's Montana de Oro, at the height of the California eucalyptus tree boom in 1908. Having begun as a homesteader in the 1870s, he established a large and thriving ranch, which is now a part of California's most beautiful state park. A canyon, trail, road, creek, reef, and peak have been named after him. Using records, maps, and genealogical tools, diarist Ken Kenyon steps back in time to reveal more about the locally well-known and well-liked Al Hazard.
