Meet David Kulczyk the dean of offbeat California history, as he tells humorous, strange, and more than slightly icky true stories of murder, mayhem, and fatal stupidity from his new book,   Death in California    From the tragic tale of 14 tourists swept to their deaths over Vernal Fall in pastoral Yosemite National Park, and the gritty details of Bob “Bear” Hite overdosing on heroin in a seedy Hollywood nightclub, to the shocking chronicle of a 10-ton jet crashing into a Bay Area kitchen, this zany collection is delightfully weird and enthrallingly human.  So spend a Saturday with us learning more about our sunny state.   Saturday, March 27 at 1 pm Bay Books Concord
