Peregrine Smith, 1975. Softcover. 165 pages. 28 x 14 cm. Text in English. Used. VG+ If ever there was an area set for an extravaganza, it was Southern California. The extraordinary climate, idyllic beaches and seashore, beautiful mountains and valleys filled promoters and super-salesmen with unquenchable enthusiasm and optimism. Talented professional planers and architects were inevitably attracted to this utopia: Grgory Ain, Frank Lloyd Wright, Rudolf Schindler, Richard J. Neutra, Raphael Soriano, Harwell H. Harris... This publication, with a perfect reasoned text, grew out of an exhibition of the same title presented at the Art Galleries of the University of California, Santa Barbara.
