Book excerpt: Unlike most Los Angeles County beach communities, the City of Hermosa Beach owns its own beach. But perhaps more than most coastal Southern California destination cities, Hermosa Beach represents shared experience, detailed on thousands of postcards over the decades. This greater square mile of sand, surf, and sun has conjured cherished memories for fishermen, surfers, and volleyball players as well as jazz fans, diners and tavern celebrants, and simply lovers of the beach who found lifelong or short-term happiness in Hermosa. These postcards recall many bygone landmarks and changing lifestyles and celebrate the Hermosa Beach century (1907-2007).

Download or read book Surf Avenue written by Stephen Axelrod and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2023-12-27 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stephen Axelrod’s father, Solly, had his son pegged for his news truck delivery route from the beginning. But Stephen knew there had to be something else out there. In Surf Avenue, he shares the story of his life as a tough Jewish boy growing up in Queens and his quest to escape the blue-collar footsteps his father left for him to follow. Humor and resilience take Axelrod through the challenges of growing up in Cambria Heights, Queens, in the 1950s. His father, a second-generation truck driver for the Daily News, wishes for nothing more than to see Stephen in the driver’s seat of his own truck, hauling newspapers for a living. However, despite steady work with union benefits, this former high school dropout has an entirely different life in mind. Stephen’s escape from Queens and his father’s grip takes him on a poignant search for himself—and through a world without self-imposed boundaries or limits. From a stint in the US Marine Corps, to a seat on the New York Stock Exchange, an acting career, and beyond, Stephen’s life takes many poignant and sometimes shocking swerves—with one constant: the secret insatiable desire for his father’s approval. Can he find wholeness?
