Monterey, California is home to the Monterey Bay Aquarium and provided the setting for John Steinbeck's novel "Cannery Row", yet the city's coastline was also the stage for a great shift in the junction of industry and tourism. This book looks at the ways in which Monterey has formed, and been formed by, the tension between labour and leisure.
