BUZZ At Your Service: The Best of L.A. Though an all-inclusive guidebook for L.A. would be virtually impossible to produce, Borislav Stanic's LOS ANGELES ATTRACTIONS (Museon, 512 pages, $24.95) comes close. It has an artistry that Fodor s and TimeOut lack. Its glossy pages are jam-packed not only with maps, photos, and concise descriptions of landmarks but also with contextual historical information. Surprising spot: Who knew that Blue Jay Way in the Hollywood Hills inspired the Beatles song of the same name? Navigation tools: Vintage photos and succinct overviews explain how the region became a center for agriculture, architecture, transportation, fashion, and beach culture. Star smarts: Maps to celebrity gravestones and a nod to the Hugh Grant Arrest Site, where the actor was picked up for soliciting a prostitute. --Los Angeles Magazine

Consisting of more than 1,000 entries and nearly 1,800 photographs, this endlessly fascinating guide is a visually stunning portrait of the history, lifestyles and culture of the Los Angeles area from Hollywood and the San Fernando Valley to the beach cities and the Westside... Stanic discusses not only the ubiquitous movie star homes and motion-picture studios, but also museums, historic movie theaters, historic landmarks, churches, cemeteries, beaches, famous restaurants and famous private residences. The photographs and vintage postcards are striking, and the concise descriptions capture the nation's second-largest city in all its wonderful, goofy glory. -- June Sawyers, Chicago Tribune -- --Chicago Tribune

A credible guide to the LA area

Reviewed in the United States on August 12, 2008

Verified Purchase

The obvious comparison this book brings to mind is with "An Architectural Guidebook to Los Angeles" by Robert Winter and (the late) David Gebhard, which (through several editions) has been a favorite of mine. (I doubt it will be updated again.) But that is a more architecture-focused book, and this one is somewhat broader, though it has more architecture than anything else. (As it happens, both books have similar views of the Disney Concert Hall on the cover.)

Winter and Gebhard include a lot more buildings, and are more insightful and critical, while Stanic is simply descriptive. But Winter and Gebhard's book is really designed for touring neighborhoods, while Stanic's is more a guide for someone with some time to hit the highlights around LA. (And the book does cover the county, not just the city.)

I think this would be a good book for someone planning a trip to the LA area, or someone living in the area who has never really gotten out and seen it. For someone who knows the area well, there won't be much new.

Really nice book

Got this for a relative overseas who is not able to travel anymore & also doesn't get out much. I read it myself before sending & thought it was a great book filled with tons of information about the city & that would keep him entertained with reading for a while. He sent a thank you card that loved the book & found it really fascinating.

This is a well-informed and attractively illustrated guide to the City of Los Angeles and some of the neighboring cities in the area, such as Pasadena. The maps, photos and other artwork are well coordinated with the text.

marked cover damage, but good book

Reviewed in the United States on January 9, 2013

Verified Purchase

I could have bought a new one. The shipping added on to the used book was not that much of a discount considering the cover is a mess and all taped up. I almost always get lucky with used books. However, the book it's self is a great book; old, but good; and the information isn't up-to-date, but I gave it 3 stars, because there is a lot of content in this heavy paperback. I'm glad I have it.
