| THE SAN GABRIELS. Robinson. Overlooking the Los Angeles Basin, the Pomona and San Gabriel Valleys, and the Mojave Desert, the San Gabriel Mountains possess a rich and diverse history in terms of human interaction. This hardcover volume presents this history, from the first Native American inhabitants, through gold discoveries and the capturing of natural water flow for irrigation and city use, to its promotion as a resort area for outdoor enthusiasts. These events, plus the establishment of both the Mount Lowe Railway and the Mount Wilson Observatory, are presented in entertaining prose along with hundreds of period photographs. #STO-50504.
