Notes

• I really enjoyed reading both Lew Irwin's Deadly Times: the 1910 Bombing of the L.A. Times and America's Forgotten Decade of Terror, and Bread and Hyacinths: the Rise and Fall of Utopian Los Angeles, by Lionel Rolfe

• As an, at this point, long-time Angeleno, I highly recommend visiting the Hollywood Forever Cemetery.
