Selling the City: Gender, Class, and the California Growth Machine, 1880-1940
Lee M. A. Simpson
Between 1880 and 1940, California cities were in the vanguard in creating comprehensive city plans and zoning ordinances that came to characterize modern American city growth. This book reveals the means by which property-owning middle-class women achieved entry into the male-dominated sphere of urban planning.
