Big Dreams (71 page)
Authors: Bill Barich
I am also indebted to the many local newspapers that I consulted along the way, most of them mentioned by name in the text.
Surfer
magazine was helpful in deciphering that subculture. For my treatment of the go-go years in Silicon Valley, I found much of use in
The Computer Entrepreneurs
by Robert Levering, Michael Katz, and Milton Moskowitz (New York: New American Library, 1984).
My edition of Edwin Bryant’s
What I Saw in California
was published by Ross & Haines, Inc., of Minneapolis as part of its Western Americana series in 1967. William Brewer’s
Up and Down California in 1860–1864
was first published by Yale University Press in 1930, but my copy was a paperback from the University of California Press, 1974.
Obviously,
Big Dreams
could not have been written without the kind participation of countless Californians who were willing to open themselves to a stranger and entrust him with their stories. I remain immensely grateful to them all. Luis Martinez in Sonoma County, Adam in Sacramento, and Rudy in Palm Springs are pseudonyms for those who did not want their real names used. The agent in Hollywood is a composite of two such agents of my acquaintance.
