About This Item
Paperback / softback. New. William Mulholland presided over the creation of a water system that forever changed the course of southern California's history. This biography of Mulholland challenges many of the prevailing versions of his life story and sheds light on the history of Los Angeles and its relationship with its most prized resource: water.
Reviews
On Jan 6 2012, RobtYoha said:
If you have an interest in development of water for the City of Los Angeles and the Owens Valley controversy -- this book is a must read. This book is an essential companion to "The Water Seekers” it is not an emotion filled expose' of water in California such as "Cadillac Desert." I always wanted to know more about William Mulholland and the early years of the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power. William Mulholland’s daughter provides insights into the people and the history surrounding this era, which no other author could. I now have a much greater appreciation for the man that created the Los Angeles Aqueduct.
