Review

"Banham wrote like a blissed-out lover, surrendering to his feelings of derangement and wonder while keeping his eyes wide-open."--"Los Angeles Times"

"Banham's book has remained au courant." --"Palisadian Post"

"Still as penetrating now as when Banham completed his observations on the city in 1971."--"La Observed"

"In one volume [Banham] does the near-impossible: He makes us see this fragmented city [of Los Angeles] as a breathing whole."--Ariel Swartley"Los Angeles Magazine" (03/01/2009)

In one volume [Banham] does the near-impossible: He makes us see this fragmented city [of Los Angeles] as a breathing whole. --Ariel Swartley"Los Angeles Magazine" (03/01/2009)"
