Way back when in 1918, Santa Barbara was a popular tourist destination, and home to an early movie studio and a couple of aviation pioneers. Movies were being filmed all over the city, and biplanes were landing and taking off on the sea and the land. In the midst of the stress of World War I and the Spanish Flu pandemic, local newspapers livened people’s spirits with diverse stories about pelicans, cartoons, and high school hijinks. As the year drew to a close, the church bells rang out to announce the end of “the War to End All Wars.” The book closes with a memorial to the young men who went off to war and never returned. This book contains more than 200 stories that were published in the local newspapers in 1918 -- the best stories of the year!
