Inventing Autopia: Dreams and Visions of the Modern Metropolis in Jazz Age Los Angeles
Jeremiah B.C. Axelrod
In 1920, as its population began to explode, Los Angeles was a largely pastoral city of bungalows and palm trees. This title shows how the clash of irreconcilable utopian visions and dreams resulted in the invention of an unforeseen form of urbanism that would reshape not only Southern California but much of the nation.
