Two Girls and a Kite - Hardcover
City of Pasadena and City of Redlands History!! Author: Edith Parker. Published 1984 by Moore Historical Foundation. Cover Art by Leo Politi! Includes a small illustrated 14-page replica of Santa Fe's original that fits in back cover pocket. Beautifully illustrated by Ethel Burt. "Of the many postal cards, letters and diaries sent and kept by tourists who visited California, few shared details of the trip along the Kite. When Edith Parker and her friend Ethel Burt graduated from Pasadena High School in May 1899 they took a two week trip along the Santa Fe Kite-Shaped Track. The account of their discovery of sights and people in the Southlands speaks of a California of a vanished era."
