Bester Preis: € 46,50 (vom 28.07.2023)Rivers in the Desert: William Mulholland and the Inventing of Los Angeles Margaret Leslie Davis Author
ISBN: 9781497638785 bzw. 149763878X, vermutlich in Englisch, Open Road Integrated Media LLC, Taschenbuch, neu.
Rivers in the Desert is the quintessential American story. It follows the remarkable career of William Mulholland, the visionary who engineered the rise of Los Angeles as the greatest American city west of the Mississippi. He sought to transform the sparse and barren desert into an inhabitable environment by designing the longest aqueduct in the Western Hemisphere, bringing water from the mountains to support a large city. Davis chronicles Mulholland’s dramatic ascension to wealth and fame, followed by his tragic downfall after the sudden collapse of the dam he had constructed to safeguard the water supply. The disaster, which killed at least five hundred people, caused his repudiation by allies, friends, and a previously adoring community. Epic in scope, Rivers in the Desert chronicles the history of Los Angeles and examines the tragic fate of the man who rescued it.
