Los Angeles

Los Angeles is the heart of American filmmaking, but this huge city--all 498 square miles of it--has even more magic than you'll find on the movie screen. And that doesn't even take into consideration the rest of Los Angeles County! It's all here, captured in this breathtaking tribute, shot by award-winning photographer Elan Penn and two renowned TV producers: Nancy and Jon Wilkman. Glimpse the past in the La Brea Tar Pits. Admire the natural beauty of Santa Catarina Island and Griffith Park. Look at amazing landmarks like the famous Hollywood sign, the Beverly Hills Hotel, and the renowned Rose Bowl. Marvel at the non-stop motion in Union Station, at the Los Angeles International Airport, and on the many freeways. From Mulholland Drive to Beverly Hills, the Venice Canals to San Fernando Valley, it's a very special trip to one of the world's capitals.Wilkman, Jon is the author of 'Los Angeles', published 2008 under ISBN 9781402750366 and ISBN 1402750366.
