Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the arrival of affordable transcontinental rail travel in the late 1880s, hundreds of thousands of tourists and transplants began making the trip to Los Angeles. Quickly becoming a haven for Easterners escaping cold winters and crowded cities, Los Angeles and neighboring communities, such as Pasadena and Santa Monica, boasted a sunny Mediterranean climate and the unique situation of both nearby mountain resorts and seaside amusements. The city also developed a bustling shopping and entertainment district downtown. More than 200 vintage postcard images illustrate a greatly diverse range of popular early attractions, including Mount Lowe, Eastlake Park, Hollywood, the Wilshire district, Griffith Park, Cawston's Ostrich Farm, the downtown shopping and theater district, and the expansive beaches, ranging from the turn of the 19th century up until World War II.

Download or read book Vanishing Los Angeles County written by Cory Stargel and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2010-08-30 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Home to more than 10 million people, modern Los Angeles County bears little resemblance to the largely agricultural landscape, dotted with small towns, of just over a century ago. Los Angeles County has surged forward on a path of phenomenal growth and constant transformation. Over this course, much of what was both famous and familiar to Angelenos 100 or even 50 years ago has been lost in the name of progress. This collection of more than 200 vintage postcards explores a sampling of these vanishing sites, including the once ubiquitous orange groves, views from the early days of the county's towns, yesteryear's famed attractions, landmarks, hotels, and restaurants, and scenes from the roadside era.

Download or read book The Rules of Attraction written by Bret Easton Ellis and published by MacMillan. This book was released on 1988 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lauren, who changes her course subject every time she changes her sleeping partner, is the centre of a curious love triangle which involves the shrewd and passionate bisexual Paul, and Sean whose ambivalence and cynicism conceal - even from himself - his own romantic yearnings. Through each of the character ́s voices Ellis presents a kaleidoscopic view of clashing expectations and frustrations, of the dreams and tumultuous desires of youth. ''The rules of attraction'' paints a poignant and sometimes hilarious picture of the couplings and capitulations, the dramas and downfalls of american college life in the 1980s.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Growing south from the plaza where the city of Los Angeles was founded as a tiny pueblo in 1781, the area now known as downtown L.A. was first developed in the late 1800s as a residential neighborhood, complete with churches and schools. As the population surged at the turn of the 20th century, the downtown area was transformed into a busy business and entertainment center of shops, banks, hotels, and theaters. The explosion of the postcard craze in the early 1900s coincided with this period of downtown's tremendous growth toward a formidable metropolis. This collection of vintage postcards offers a glimpse into the changing city through the 1940s.
