Description

The town of King City came into existence in 1886, when the railroad arrived north of San Lorenzo Creek in the Salinas Valley of Central California. Named after Charles H. King, owner of this portion of the San Lorenzo Land Grant, King City has grown into a hub for the magnificent agricultural fields that surround it and support its economy. US Highway 101 and the Salinas River are unique features of the town, and Mesa Del Rey Airport was instrumental in the training of pilots during World War II. Author John Steinbeck's novel East of Eden is set near King City.

Author Biography:

This book is the result of a team effort. Howard P. Strohn of Priest Valley was born in King City in 1939, graduated from high school there in 1957, and has spent most of his life in the rural areas of Monterey County. John R. Jernigan was born in King City in 1953, graduated from high school in 1971, and worked as a glazing contractor and owner of King City Glass for more than 40 years. Karen Vanderwall Jernigan came to town in 1977 to work as a reporter for the Rustler newspaper and stayed to raise a family and serve as a city councilwoman.
