Artikelbeschreibung des Verkäufers

First printing. An account of 100 years in Southern California history from 1884 to 2000 by this former L.A. Times reporter. "On one level, this is a history of the newspaper that transformed Southern California from water-starved municipal wanna-be to world-class metropolis; on another level, it's a four-generation family biography. The most outsized of all the outsized characters is Otis Chandler, born in 1927. His great-grandfather, grandfather, father, and mother had turned the Los Angeles Times into a journalistically awful but highly profitable and influential daily newspaper. Chandler, a motorcycle-riding, surfing, bodybuilding hunk of a man with a serious side, wanted to challenge the New York Times as the nation's preeminent general circulation daily. Although often faltering, he came close to his goal before family fissures led to the dissolution of the parent company during the 1990s. Part business saga, part regional history, part family soap opera, always compellingly readable, McDougal's book seamlessly connects the past and the present." (Steve Weinberg, ALA) Illustrated with photographs. Notes, selected bibliography, index/ xvii, 526 pp. Near fine in near fine dust jacket.…

Shopbeschreibung

Bookfever.com - the name used by Volk and Iiams, Booksellers- specializes in first editions of twentieth century literature, with an emphasis on women authors, African American, Native American and Latin American authors - plus mystery & detective fiction, science fiction & fantasy, poetry and children's & illustrated books. We try to offer many uncommon books, and have a large selection of first books, and books by authors who are less frequently collected. Of the approximately 60,000 volumes in stock, the majority are hardcover first editions, although we also stock vintage science fiction paperbacks as well as sf digests and pulps. We also have a large selection of books signed by the author and uncorrected proof copies. Only about 50% of our stock is catalogued, so please inquire if you are searching for specific titles. We have been selling books by mail order and on the internet since 1993. We have a large booth dedicated to books (called Books Upstairs) at the Antiques Upstairs Mall, 5 Main Street, Jackson, CA. (open every day from 10-5) The emphasis there is on Western Americana, children¿s books and inexpensive reading copies. In 1998 we relocated our main business from Sacramento to the Sierra foothills of Amador County, about 35 miles east of downtown Sacramento and between Ione & Sutter Creek. There, on 10 acres of rolling oak-covered hills, we built a "bookhouse" for our books.

All significant flaws are described; dust jackets are protected by archival covers, and books are packed carefully for shipping. We welcome questions by email or phone.…
