In the mid 1920’s, Rex B. Clark, an unmatched visionary of his time, accomplished the near impossible by constructing the world-class Norconian Resort in a remote area of Southern California, which after the stock market crash was converted into one of the pre-eminent Naval Hospitals in the United States. Huell travels to the site with filmmaker and historian Kevin Bash.
