       "With commentary by editor and publisher emeritus Dave Mitchell, The Light on The Coast encapsulates a weekly newspaper’s first 65 years of unpredictable reporting from the small towns along the Marin County, California, coast.
        At times, The Point Reyes Light — or The Baywood Press as it was known for 18 years — changed the course of public affairs by exposing private wrongdoing and official misconduct.
        A Light exposé and editorial crusade won the 1979 Pulitzer Prize for Meritorious Public Service. Only a handful of weeklies have ever won a Pulitzer in any category.
        On other occasions, even the newspaper’s bovine coverage has made readers chuckle, what with bulls stopping traffic by fighting on Highway 1 in the Olema Valley, a firefighter having to get a cow down from a tree in Hicks Valley, and dairy cows stampeding late at night through downtown Point Reyes Station." from sparselysageandtimely.com
