Thomas Guide California

Thomas Guide California is necessary for anyone living in or visiting the Golden State. Based on a page and grid system, nothing is more detailed or thorough than a Thomas Guide.

Back in 1915, George Thomas and his brothers--looking for an easy way to map large areas--devised the very first Thomas Guide. California was their home and became the subject of their rudimentary map book. In time, these Thomas Guides were a staple in California, then a half dozen other western states.
