"Los Angeles cannot be contained by any one description or category.

An exemplary aspect of the encyclopedia is its inclusiveness. . . . Serious researchers will fast find themselves sidetracked into the seemingly inexhaustible details and trivia found in this volume."--Melissa Rae Root, American Reference Books Annual
