Synopsis
Perpetual sunshine, palm trees, miles of unbroken beaches, yachts, cliff-top mansions, millionaires—these are the images of Orange County that come to mind for many people, and there is much truth in this depiction, for Orange County is a place of boundless natural wonders that attracts more than 25 million tourists a year. However, the full story of Orange County is far more complex. It’s a story of conquistadors, wildcatters, farmers, veterans of great wars, builders, artists, and filmmakers.
With a selection of fine historic images from her best-selling book Historic Photos of Orange County, Leslie Anne Stone provides a valuable and revealing historical retrospective on the growth and development of Orange County. Remembering Orange County offers more than 125 images drawn from the county’s fascinating past, from the mission ruins of San Juan Capistrano, to the turn-of-the-century celery fields of Westminster, to the eye-popping fantasia of a young Disneyland.
By East Coast standards, Orange County is an infant—just over a century old—and tiny compared with most California counties; but its population is second only to neighboring Los Angeles County and growing every day. This volume captures the story of Orange County’s evolution from a sleepy backwater suburb of Los Angeles to an international tourist destination.
