Offers an account of the particular visions that drove the period of Anglo dominance in the Los Angeles region, from about 1850 to about 1985. This title shows that Anglo settlers and developers wanted nothing more than to make sense of their surroundings, but that their two dominant paradigms were at war with each other.
