A witty guide to offbeat and unusual events, sights, and attractions of the West Coast, from the authors of the best-selling Europe Off the Wall . This guide gives vacationers and travellers heading to California, Oregon, Washington, or Nevada a sample of goings-on that are off the beaten path, such as a Bigfoot festival, the world's most far-out novelty store, and a shop for performers' old clothes. Includes addresses, directions, and opening hours for each attraction, along with a brief description of what to expect.
