    enjoyable read
  

*by A***R on Reviewed in the United States on January 23, 2009*

the other reviewers have done a better job than I could, but I just wanted to add my 5 stars to this thoroughly enjoyable book.  I lived in South Gate in its "past it's prime" years, and really enjoyed learning more about the city in the beginnings and in its heyday.I was really surprised at how the author could make what I thought would be a dry subject into something so interesting.  This is a great book.  If you're interested in Southern California history and culture you should read this book.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    A Must-Read
  

*by K***N on Reviewed in the United States on December 14, 2003*

I was absolutely riveted by Ms. Nicolaides' study of LA suburban culture and how the struggles therein eventually culminated into the Watts riots.  This is a must-read for anyone searching for answers about how these neighborhoods developed and how the families within them struggled from poverty to middle-class.  It is written beautifully and I thoroughly enjoyed every page.
