Remembering Los Angeles

Los Angeles attracts dreamers as well as schemers. Angelenos love their sunshine, beaches, movies, celebrities, cars, and freeways. Through words and historic photos, this book follows the story of Los Angeles from its origins through the phenomenal growth that transformed a desert into a dynamic metropolitan super-city. Remembering Los Angeles includes ample reminders of Hollywood’s golden age and examples of L.A.’s tradition of architectural experimentation. These are legacies for which the “City of Angels” is world famous.
