Pearl Chase First Lady of Santa Barbara by Cheri Rae

I enjoy reading about local history and Pearl Chase First Lady of Santa Barbara by Cheri Rae fits the bill perfectly! 

Pearl Chase First Lady of Santa Barbara by Cheri Rae is a small book in stature, short in length, but filled with lots of interesting information about Pearl Chase. Cheri Rae writes in the introduction of her book the following about Ms. Chase:
Pearl Chase was Santa Barbara's most influential woman of the 20th century. With her interests in public health and education; the arts and architecture; urban planning and environmental integrity, she was a true Renaissance woman who blazed her own unique trail, and compelled others to follow in her footsteps. 
It didn't take me very long to read Pearl Chase First Lady of Santa Barbara. I truly enjoyed learning more about the wonderful woman who helped shape Santa Barbara. Pearl Chase accomplished a lot in her life as a private citizen and she never held public office. It's simply amazing all that she accomplished!

Until my next post, happy reading!
