If you’re into surf history, check out these two authors coming to town for book signings.

Stuart H. Coleman – author of “Eddie Would Go” – just came out with a new book called “Fierce Heart: The Story of Makaha and the Soul of Hawaiian Surfing.” The book is about Hawaiian culture in the small town of Makaha on Oahu, and the iconic surfers who have emerged from that area.

Bustin Down the DoorColeman will be doing a Southern California signing tour along with Shaun Tomson, who will be talking about his new book and film Bustin’ Down the Door, which chronicles the Australian and South African’s struggle to make a name for themselves in Hawaii just as the shortboard era was emerging.

Here are some places you can meet the authors:

Friday: 6 p.m.-8 p.m. at Henessey’s in Dana Point.

Saturday: 2 p.m. at Barnes and Noble in Huntington Beach.

Saturday: 4:30 p.m.-6 p.m. at Duke’ Restaurant in Huntington Beach.
