Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the early 1900s, Silver Lake has been a magnet for iconoclastic writers, architects and political activists. Famed architect Frank Lloyd Wright, who designed the Hollyhock House for socialist and oil heiress Aline Barnsdall, drew a wave of visionary modernists to the area. Local civil rights advocate Loren Miller spearheaded the fight against housing discrimination. Silver Lake's Black Cat bar and Harry Hay's Mattachine Society were central to the early gay rights movement. Literary artists Anäis Nin and James Leo Herlihy made the neighborhood their home, as did other notables like first lady of baseball Effa Manley and "Hobo Millionaire" James Eads How. Michael Locke and Vincent Brook chronicle these and other people and places that helped make Silver Lake the bohemian epicenter of Los Angeles.

Book Synopsis The History of Silver Lake by : Scott Webb
Download or read book The History of Silver Lake written by Scott Webb and published by . This book was released on 2024-03-15 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The History Of Silver Lake is a captivating book that takes you on a journey through time. With over 135 photos and 20 eclectic chapters, this book will transport you to eras worth reliving. Whether you're reading for your own pleasure or sharing the book with loved ones, this is a treasure to be cherished for generations to come. Searching through old county archives, the authors found no formal account of Silver Lake's centuries-long history. Local lore was often strikingly different from historical facts. The advancing age of first hand witnesses created a sense of urgency to recover historical evidence for this tale of the lake's evolution. Through deeds dating back to Pennsylvania's founding, and interviews with long-time residents, they unveil both events of the day and the evolution of the lake from a wilderness wetland to a utilitarian mill pond, now a thriving community. From a 6th-grade class's unexpected role in historical preservation to a tragic twist in a clever business venture, each chapter offers stories of family, faith, war, and renewal. If you enjoy storytelling and seek a deeper understanding of the past, join the authors and meet the people who played key roles in Silver Lake's rich history. "This is a beautifully written, well researched and footnoted tome on the history of a 250 -year-old early lakeside settlement south of Harrisburg in York County, Pennsylvania. The multi-talented authors have included their own delightful drawings and maps along with historical pictures and post cards, newspaper clippings and legal documents. The stunning avian pictures by Ken Boyer, a neighboring photographer, add greatly to the book." Glenn N. Holliman, immediate past president, Pennsylvania Heritage Foundation

Download or read book Secret Stairs written by Charles Fleming and published by Santa Monica Press. This book was released on 2010-04-01 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Containing walks and detailed maps from throughout the city, Secret Stairs highlights the charms and quirks of a unique feature of the Los Angeles landscape, and chronicles the geographical, architectural, and historical aspects of the city’s staircases, as well as of the neighborhoods in which the steps are located. From strolling through the classic La Loma neighborhood in Pasadena to walking the Sunset Junction Loop in Silver Lake, to taking the Beachwood Canyon hike through “Hollywoodland” to enjoying the magnificent ocean views from the Castellammare district in Pacific Palisades, Secret Stairs takes you on a tour of the staircases all across the City of Angels. The circular walks, rated for duration and difficulty, deliver tales of historic homes and their fascinating inhabitants, bits of unusual local trivia, and stories of the neighborhoods surrounding the stairs. That’s where William Faulkner was living when he wrote the screenplay for To Have and Have Not; that house was designed by Neutra; over there is a Schindler; that’s where Woody Guthrie lived, where Anais Nin died, and where Thelma Todd was murdered . . . Despite the fact that one of these staircases starred in an Oscar-winning short film—Laurel and Hardy’s The Music Box, from 1932—these civic treasures have been virtually unknown to most of the city’s residents and visitors. Now, Secret Stairs puts these hidden stairways back on the map, while introducing urban hikers to exciting new “trails” all around the city of Los Angeles.
