Synopsis:
The second volume of Starr's cultural history of the Golden State focuses on the turn-of-the-century years and the emergence of Southern California as a regional culture in its own right.
From the Back Cover: With the exception of certain deliberate excursions to the north, this narrative is more than half concerned with the rise of Southern California in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. The focus remains, as usual, the imaginative and symbolic aspects of experience as the imagination impinges upon social and psychological realities and in turn transforms the materials of experience into the building blocks of identity.
