Book Synopsis The City and County of Los Angeles in Southern California by : Harry Ellington Brook
Download or read book The City and County of Los Angeles in Southern California written by Harry Ellington Brook and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-04 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The City and County of Los Angeles in Southern California: March, 1903 Southern California, regarded by many as the choicest section of this great country, is a little world of itself. Here, within an area of 45, 000 square miles, may be found a wonderful variety of scenery and climate. Along the coast line, which extends for a distance of 275 miles, it is cool in summer, with a constant breeze from the broad Pacific. At a distance of from 20 to 30 miles from the ocean, the breeze loses some of its power, but there is still sufficient to temper the summer heat. Farther inland, on the great plains of the Mojave and Colorado valleys, the sun rules throughout the year, and its rays in summer become somewhat too torrid for comfort, although, unlike the Eastern weather, the nights are almost invariably pleasant and cool. The scenery is also varied. There are long stretches of valleys and mesas, rolling foothills, and higher up in the mountain ranges deep canons, precipitous cliffs, and pine-clad summits, where on the northern slopes snow lingers late into the spring. The section usually referred to as Southern California includes the seven southern counties of the State, namely, Los Angeles, Orange, San Bernardino, Riverside, San Diego, Ventura and Santa Barbara. The area of this section is about equal to that of Pennsylvania, and nearly as large as England. The population, in 1880, was 64,371, or 7 1/2 percent, of the population of the State. In 1890 it was 201,352, or 16-/3 per cent. of the population of the State. Today it is 335,600, or more than 20 percent of the population of California. The growth of this section has, indeed, been most remarkable. One of the most noteworthy features of the development of Southern California during the past few years has been the utilization of an abundant subterranean water supply, which was not previously known to exist. Southern California can no longer with justice be referred to as a semi-arid section. It is estimated that during the past three years over 75,000 inches of water have been developed from underground sources, an amount sufficient to irrigate 500,000 acres of land.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Los Angeles From the Mountains to the Sea: With Selected Biography of Actors It seems that, as a general custom, centuries old, a book must have what is known as a Preface. In former times, when a book was nothing if not ponderous, the Preface was a thing to daunt the reader at the very start; it was so big and so heavy, and it had such a serious countenance. For my part, I could never quite see the use of a Preface at all. If a man is'to tell a story - and every book, especially a narrative of history, is a story - why not begin at once with it, without any hems or haws, as the saying is? Still, there are times and instances when a Preface may well serve a good purpose; and it may be that this story of the Wonder City of Los Angeles is a case in point. Anyway, the publishers, eager and anxious that nothing should be left undone, have a serious conviction that there should be a Preface to this book, no matter What argument there might be as to any other. So, we must have a Preface to the Book of the Wonder City. But it will be a short Preface; it will be brief and with as little waste of words and time as possible, because no matter into whose hands whatever this book falls, he will be keen to get at it, and with as few by-paths as possible to travel. And what I have to say, therefore, prefatory to the book, is that it is the true story of a great City that was founded by order of the King, in the old days when the Western World was new. It is the story of a City that, for a century of time after its birth, showed few signs of promise, but which has now come to be the Greatest City of Western America and the metropolis of California - the Land 0' Heart's Desire.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Annual Publication of the Historical Society of Southern California and Pioneer Register, Los Angeles, 1900 If a person walking down Broadway or Spring street, at the present day, could turn Time backward in his flight fifty years, how strange the contrast would seem. Where now stand blocks of stately buildings, whose windows are aglow with all the beauties of modern art, instead there would be two or three streets whose business centered in a few tiendas, or stores, decorated with strings of chilis or jerked beef; The one window of each tienda was barred with iron, the tiendero sitting in the doorway to pro teet his wares, or to watch: for customers. Where red and yellow brick buildings hold their heads proudly to the heavens'rnow, fifty years ago the soft hills slid down to the back doors of the adobe dwelling and offered their wealth of flowers and wild herbs to the botanist. Sidewalks were unknown, pedestrians marched single file in the middle of the street, in winter to enjoy the sunshine, in summer to escape the trickling tears of brea which, dropping from the roofs, branded their linen or clogged their footsteps Now where the policeman' 'wends his weary way, the vaquero, with his lively cuidado (lookout) lassoed his. Wild steer, and dragging him to the mantanza at the rear of his dwelling, Offered him. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2018-03-16 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Southern California Paradise, (in the Suburbs of Los Angeles): Being a Historic and Descriptive Account of Pasadena, San Gabriel, Sierra Madre, and La Canada There may be more than one Paradise in Southern California but the one to whose description these pages are chiefly devoted is situated on the northeast of the city of Los Angeles, at a distance of from five to fifteen miles. The most of it would be encompassed by a circle ten miles in diameter. The object in view is not to tell a glowing story, induce immigration, or enhance the value of property. It is to give the facts in an interesting manner; to record the early annals of this locality; to furnish residents with such a description of their home and surround ings as they can conscientiously send to friends, and all who are inquiring about this land; to put something trustworthy into the hands of tourists and prospectors; and especially to afford reliable and satisfactory information to those who are longing to make a home where they can find health and comfort amid sunshine, fruit, and flowers. A philanthropic, rather than a speculative, purpose has been the inspiration in the preparation of this volume. The hope is sincerely cherished that it may mislead none, but rather prove a help to many. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
