Louis Rose, San Diego's First Jewish Settler and Entrepreneur

77 Miles of Jewish Stories
In this book, along a 77-mile stretch of highway, we visit Jewish institutions and meet Jews at their work. Yes, they include doctors, lawyers, merchants, and rabbis, but they also include engineers, alpaca farmers, professional football players, and rural families who keep Judaism alive miles from the closest synagogue. When one exits a freeway in search of Jewish stories, one never knows exactly who one will meet, or what one will experience. Some chapters of Don Harrison's book are travelogues, others are histories, still others are examples of solid, on-the-ground journalism. Woven together, the 70 chapters paint a composite picture of contemporary San Diego County-a picture that readers today can enjoy, and which historians of the future may find useful as source material.
Schlepping and Schmoozing Along the Interstate 5

Harrison finds at least one Jewish story at every exit from Via de la Valle in Del Mar to Christianitos Road adjacent to the San Diego County- Orange County line. Volume I took readers from the Mexican border to Old Town San Diego; Volume II from the Morena District to the San Diego County Fairground; and this volume completes the journey, with 90 stories total in the three volumes.--
