			        		&#x201C;Every page of Eternity Street is hardcore, bloody, scabrous, fascinating&#x2026;This aptly titled, instant classic now revives the ragged and angry old ghosts, permanently&#x2026;This is one of the most enjoyable books you will ever read.&#x201D; - Tony Mostrom, LA Weekly&#x201C;Groundbreaking&#x2026;[I]f you read Professor Faragher&#x2019;s Eternity Street you will be enlightened to discover the violent story of the West&#x2015;real and imagined&#x2015;today&#x2019;s and yesterday&#x2019;s&#x2015;begins and ends in Los Angeles.&#x201D; - Stuart Rosebrook, True West&#x201C;Eye-opening&#x2026;As you read, you may regret that There Will Be Blood was already taken, but Faragher&#x2019;s book is the ideal prequel to Paul Thomas Anderson&#x2019;s 2007 epic about SoCal&#x2019;s formative years in the early twentieth century.&#x201D; - Tom Carson, Bookforum&#x201C;Hugely readable&#x2026;Faragher is one of the great living American historians, and his area of expertise is the American frontier. His 1992 biography, Daniel Boone: The Life and Legend of an American Pioneer, is a modern classic, and Eternity Street is destined to become one.&#x201D; - Allen Barra, Chicago Tribune&#x201C;An achievement&#x2026;Eternity Street shades the history of Los Angeles in a way no other book has&#x2026;[A] testament to [Faragher&#x2019;s] capacity as a historian and a writer&#x2026;I recommend it to natives of any place.&#x201D; - Emmett Rensin, Vox&#x201C;Faragher&#x2019;s stories evoke Cormac McCarthy. In a grim but riveting narrative, languid preconceptions of Edenic California&#x2019;s birth give way to murder and mayhem, carnage and cruelty. Eternity Street describes human beings at their worst, but this is American history at its best.&#x201D; - Elizabeth Fenn, Pulitzer Prize&#x2013;winning author of Encounters at the Heart of the World&#x201C;Gripping and authoritative, this is a masterwork of scholarship and literary grace. Faragher&#x2019;s dark portrait of L.A. pulls no punches and asks us to consider what grim DNA yet lurks in the City of Angels.&#x201D; - William Deverell, University of Southern California, author of To Bind Up the Nation&#x2019;s Wounds&#x201C;In Eternity Street, John Mack Faragher has unearthed a blood-soaked history of nineteenth-century Los Angeles that blows away &#x2018;Wild West&#x2019; fantasies. Faragher&#x2019;s masterwork should be read by all who wish to understand more about the violence that has shaped the American past.&#x201D; - Stephen Aron, UCLA, author of The American West: A Very Short Introduction&#x201C;Through chilling anecdote and skilled storytelling, John Mack Faragher explores the experience of frontier violence for L.A.&#x2019;s Mexican, Anglo, Indian, Black, and Chinese residents. This may just be the true origin story for L.A. noir.&#x201D; - Amy Greenberg, Penn State University, author of A Wicked War&#x201C;Eternity Street will be an enduring landmark. Faragher&#x2019;s stories are not happy ones, but they are ones we need to remember if we hope to embrace the West&#x2019;s full history and cope with the legacy that continues to bedevil us.&#x201D; - Elliott West, University of Arkansas, author of The Last Indian War
