Bob Miller's Tales from the Los Angeles Kings
For nearly four decades the Los Angeles Kings have made history and entertained hockey fans throughout Southern California. For 31 of those seasons Bob Miller has been the "Voice of the Kings" as the play by-play man for more than 2,500 games, including regular, pre-and postseason contests. He has seen just about all of the high and low points in Kings history, as well as the many great players who have worn the Los Angeles uniform. The Kings are, of course, not just an ordinary NHL franchise, especially when it comes to mixing Hollywood with hockey. In Bob Miller's Tales from the Los Angeles Kings, the Hall of Fame broadcaster gives readers his insight into the Kings' owners, from the legendary Jack Kent Cooke to the flamboyant Jerry Buss. He also talks about owner Bruce McNall, who made the deal for superstar Wayne Gretzky and put Los Angeles on the hockey map, but who eventually lost the franchise by overspending.

Seeking Community in a Global City: Guatemalans and Salvadorans in Los Angeles by Nora Hamilton, ISBN 1566398681
Driven by the pressures of poverty and civil strife at home, large numbers of Central Americans came to the Los Angeles area during the 1980's. Neither purely economic migrants, though they were in search of stable work, nor official refugees, although they carried the scars of war and persecution, Guatemalans and Salvadorans were even denied the aid given to refugees such as Cubans and Vietnamese. In addition, these immigrants sought refuge in a city undergoing massive economic and demographic shifts of its own. The result was -- and is -- a complex interaction that will help to reconceptualize the migration experience.
Based on twenty years of work with the Los Angeles Central American community and filled with facts, figures, and personal narratives, Seeking Community in a Global City presents this saga from many perspectives. The authors examine the forces in Central America that sent thousands of people streaming across international borders. They discuss economic, political, and...

Rio L.A.: Tales from the Los Angeles River by Patt Morrison, ISBN 1883318246
Great cities have grown up because of their great rivers. Los Angeles grew up and disregarded hers.Still, the Los Angeles River is a dramatic waterway that rages with all the drama of life in its city. Once, the river meant life and death to those who lived along its banks. To some, the Los Angeles river people whose lives parallel it, it is still so. Yet, the City of Los Angeles, born in the century of the industrial revolution, not only did not make its peace with its nurturing river, but in fact waged war against itand only now has the metropolis begun to cherish its rolling waters. RO L.A. tells the poetic story of the river withNPR contributor and Los Angeles Times columnist Patt Morrisons words and Mark Lamonicas startling photographs. Their RO L.A. demonstrates that this river is as vital and mystical as the city it transects. As the authors prove, the Los Angeles River is the life source of Americas most important city.
