Synopsis :

Intended for everybody, visitors and locals alike, who would like to explore the city in depth, this guide seeks to dispel the misguided image of a megalopolis that is often superficially dismissed or even disliked. But it can also be read as a declaration of love for the City of Angels.

A concrete jungle surrounded by abundant nature, Los Angeles is surprisingly more than just celebrities, beaches, and theme parks. From bison in the wild, to the actual end of Route 66, an old Cold War army base, a monument to a Japanese man recognized as Righteous Among the Nations, the original Batcave, a unique statue of a shirtless Abraham Lincoln, and an abandoned Nazi camp, the L.A. urban sprawl is packed with unusual and secret treasures.

À propos de l'auteur: Darrow Carson, a California native, grew up traveling the world with his father. As an adult, he returned home where, after working as a marketing manager at Disney Studios for ten years, he became a certified tour guide, surprising guests with some of the many hidden gems of Los Angeles. F licien Cassan, a French journalist, has been based in Los Angeles since 2013. He has written and edited stories for Le Monde, GQ France and Slate.fr, among other publications.
