Dog Ear pays homage (respect, honor, praise) to the famous writers of Monterey. With the likes of Robert Louis Stevenson, John Steinbeck, Henry Miller and others, Monterey was a hotbed of creative writing. While we can’t be certain which side of the dog ear debate, they chose (hands off the first editions!), we do know they were great writers. Enjoy with a good read and you decide whether to “dog ear” or not.
