These entries are arranged by date--January 1 through December 31--but are selected from more than three centuries of writing by those living in, or visiting, Los Angeles. Thus the entry for January 21, for example, will have an excerpt from Benjamin Hayes in 1850, F. Scott Fitzgerald in 1938, Charlton Heston in 1957, John Lennon in 1974, and a blogger in 2011. In the process, readers get a wonderful glimpse of life in this city through the ages. Profound, historical, whimsical, this rich mix of letters and diary entries marking each day of the year offers intimate flashes of life in Los Angeles over the past four centuries."--Provided by publisher Geschichte 1542-2018 gnd Englisch (DE-588)4014777-0 gnd Brief (DE-588)4008240-4 gnd Tagebuch (DE-588)4058900-6 gnd Los Angeles (Calif., Motiv) (DE-588)4274557-3 gnd Authors Anecdotes Pioneers California Los Angeles Anecdotes Celebrities California Los Angeles Anecdotes Authors fast Celebrities fast Civilization fast Pioneers fast Los Angeles (Calif.)
