In the first book-length scholarly study of the San Fernando Valley—home to one-third of the population of Los Angeles—Laura R. Barraclough combines ambitious historical sweep with an on-theground investigation of contemporary life in this iconic western suburb. She is particularly intrigued by the Valley's many rural elements, such as dirt roads, tack-and-feed stores, horse-keeping districts, citrus groves, and movie ranches. Far from natural or undeveloped spaces, these rural characteristics are, she shows, the result of deliberate urbanplanning decisions that have shaped the Valley over the course of more than a hundred years. The Valley's entwined history of urban development and rural preservation has real ramifications today for patterns of racial and class inequality and especially for the evolving meaning of whiteness. Immersing herself in meetings of homeowners' associations, equestrian organizations, and redistricting committees, Barraclough uncovers the racial biases embedded in rhetoric about “open space” and “western heritage.” The Valley's urban cowboys enjoy exclusive, semirural landscapes alongside the opportunities afforded by one of the world's largest cities. Despite this enviable position, they have at their disposal powerful articulations of both white victimization and, with little contradiction, color-blind politics.

NORTH OF MULHOLLAND is a distillation of experiences, opinions, and stories springing from Southern Californias San Fernando Valley, but expanding into a world view of where we have been, where we are, and where we may be headed. Mr. Coopers wide-ranging travels; his fascination with Churchill, antique typewriters, and books; and his critical eye for our surroundings, have spawned more than fifty fascinating essays for the San Fernando Valley Business Journal. He takes on everything from strip malls to Countrywide Home Loans; from the Los Angeles Times to technology; and from Los Angeles City Council to Nebraskas legislature. He ruminates on fire and water; long-gone businesses; living up the street from Michael Jacksons family compound; and the elephant at the Los Angeles Zoo. For those who live or work in the San Fernando Valley, this is a book for you. For those dont live in the San Fernando Valley, this is also a book for you
