"With more than fifty photographs, diagrams and maps, Brown Acres is the first historical narrative to detail any world-class city's sewer system--complete with the relationship between headstrong politicians and the reformers seeking to "heal the bay" after a century of pollution and contamination. Brown Acres provides a unique look at the underground history of Los Angeles"--Provided by publisher.
