One of the funnier aspects of Steinbecks library, in my opinion, is that for many years the town fathers wanted NOTHING to do with Steinbeck, be it a library of preserving his home. Of course this was because in most of his writing, Steinbeck told the migrant workers side of the story, whereas most of the town fathers were the growers.

My memory tells me that this library has just recently opened and is somewhat viewed as a thron in the side of the town's shaker and movers.

SRS: We coupled our trip with Robinson Jeffers, the "Big Sur Poet." I've enjoyed all his poetry and plays and stories since I was about 20. We ended that part of the trip with a tour of "Tor House," which is now in downtown Carmel. CHEERS, Bob
