California, a history

Creator: Kevin Starr | History - 2005

A definitive, single-volume history of the Golden State ranges from the earliest Native American cultures, through the Spanish and Mexican eras, the Gold Rush, and rise of Hollywood, to the twenty-first century, chronicling the events, ...

Publisher: Random House, Inc.

About this book
California has always been our Shangri-la–the promised land of countless pilgrims in search of the American Dream. Now the Golden State’s premier historian, Kevin Starr, distills the entire sweep of California’s history into one splendid volume. From the age of exploration to the age of Arnold, this is the story of a place at once quintessentially American and utterly unique.Arguing that America’s most populous state has always been blessed with both spectacular natural beauty and astonishing human diversity, Starr unfolds a rapid-fire epic of discovery, innovation, catastrophe, and triumph. For generations, California’s native peoples basked in the abundance of a climate and topography eminently suited to human habitation. By the time the Spanish arrived in the early sixteenth century, there were scores of autonomous tribes were thriving in the region. Though conquest was rapid, nearly two centuries passed before Spain exerted control over upper California through the chain of missions that stand to this day.The discovery of gold in January 1848 changed everything. With population increasing exponentially as get-rich-quick dreamers converged from all over the world, California reinvented itself overnight. Starr deftly traces the successive waves of innovation and calamity that have broken over the state since then–the incredible wealth of the Big Four railroad tycoons and the devastating San Francisco earthquake of 1906; the emergence of Hollywood as the world’s entertainment capital and of Silicon Valley as the center of high-tech research and development; the heroic irrigation and transportation projects that have altered the face of the region; the role of labor, both organized and migrant, in key industries from agriculture to aerospace.Kevin Starr has devoted his career to the history of his beloved state, but he has never lost his sense of wonder over California’s sheer abundance and peerless variety. This one-volume distillation of a lifetime’s work gathers together everything that is most important, most fascinating, and most revealing about our greatest state.

California, America's high-stakes experiment

Creator: Peter Schrag | Political Science - 2006-04-20

This is an incisive, pointed analysis of the current shape and texture of California and what it means for our national agenda. "Once again, Peter Schrag asserts himself as a perceptive and courageous commentator.

Publisher: Univ of California Pr

About this book
Peter Schrag takes on the big issues--immigration, globalization, and the impact of California's politics on its quality of life--in this dynamic account of the Golden State's struggle to recapture the American dream. In the past half-century, California has been both model and anti-model for the nation and often the world, first in its high level of government and public services--schools, universities, highways--more lately for its dysfunctional government, deteriorating services, and sometimes regressive public policies. Schrag's incisive analysis of the state's political, demographic, and fiscal realities vividly demonstrates that it has been struggling with a range of problems for a generation. The author deftly shows that California's ability to forge its culturally and ethnically diverse population into a successful democracy will be of crucial importance not only to America, but to the world. He also explains how many current "solutions" exacerbate the very problems they're supposed to solve and analyzes a variety of possible state and federal policy alternatives to restore accountable government and a vital democracy to the nation's largest state and world's fifth largest economy. Among the issues that Schrag tackles: The impact of Latino and Asian immigration and the emergence of California as the first large majority minority state The globalization of California's economy and culture The growing reliance of voters on the initiative, referendum, and recall processes The increasing instability of elected government California as cultural avant-garde, from hippies to gay marriage Peter Schrag takes on the big issues--immigration, globalization, and the impact of California's politics on its quality of life--in this dynamic account of the Golden State's struggle to recapture the American dream.

    REFORMULATED!!!!

    Reformulation on California Baby Calendula Cream Be Aware: In the old formulation, water and calendula were the first two ingredients -- the new formula Calendula is the 8TH INGREDIENT - water, caprylic capric triglyceride, cetyl alcohol, stearic acid, glycerin USP, cetearyl olivate and sorbitan olivate, canola oil and FINALLY Calendula! This formulation is much cheaper for the company and yet they still charge an avg. of $5 an ounce!! I'm pretty outraged -- if you use California Baby please let them know how you feel about this change in formulation and look to make sure the products YOU use haven't also been reformulated. ---- Please note that my son who has severe eczema used to have NO skin reaction to the old formula and now he has pain on application and redness in his skin for up to an hour after it's applied.I also want to note that it wasn't until my son started reacting to it that I even compared the labels --- no notification of reformulation on the new... 1/5 A.

    Pricey but functional

    This is great for babies with sensitive skin or suffering from eczema. I think it comes from the sweat during the warmer months. None of the other baby lotions or creams work as well as the Calendula has for us. The itching would make my daughter scream for hours on end. It was really disheartening. No matter what we tried we couldn't get her any relief unless she soaked in a bath, and we could only do that for so long. The calendula helps eliminate itch and inflammation which seems to have worked well. Be aware of the ingredients though- marigold being the main ingredient could have adverse effects for children with allergies.My daughter also gets a lot of diaper rash from not only going to the bathroom but the combination of it and sweat.

    Inspired Photography

    The other review for this little book is flat out wrong, so I'll give mine. The photographs are why you want this. Galen Rowell is in my opinion one of the best nature photographers of the last century, and he knew California. He also knew how to show very clearly the feel of the state; you don't just get the visual image in his photos, you get a different emotion from each one. Every picture is amazing in its own way. The text isn't as stunning, but fits well, and the layout and typography are fitting to the photographs. I highly reccomend this for any coffee table or for any lover of California or photography or things of beauty. 5/5 T. Harward (Boston, MA United States) - See all my reviews, October 22, 2004

    Beautiful little book

    I purchased a number of these books as "thank you" gifts for various friends we are going to visit in Europe. I was so excited about finding a picture book on California, I didn't read the description thoroughly -- note that the books are only about 7"x7". Even so, their small size makes them perfect to carry in a suitcase. The pictures are quite nice and, even though the coloring is enhanced a bit, they truly show how beautiful California can be. My ONLY complaint with these books is that the price is printed on the back of the dust jacket! This means that if you're giving them as a gift, there's no way to cover up how much you paid (or could have paid) for the book.

    Awesome photography

    This compact size coffee table book with outstanding photography by Galen Rowell makes a great souvenir for visitors to beautiful California. The diversity of this great state is depicted in all its spectacular beauty from the desert to the majestic mountain peaks; from minute wildflowers to the towering redwoods. Prose and verse from famous & not-so-famous Californians & visitors add pleasant reading which accompany the lovely images. 4/5 Trudi E.

    I didn't know much about baby products when I first had my son. My son had really bad eczma as an infant and I tried a huge variety of products- trying to find something that worked. I finally stumbled on California Baby's Calendula Cream (which I highly recommend getting as well!) which cleared up his eczema in just a day or two! I also use it for his diaper area, and have not had a diaper rash problem since. Then one day he started having a scalp problem, and I found the California Baby Calendula Shampoo & Bodywash. The problem went away immediately after starting to use the product! I now only buy California Baby products for my son. I use their creams, shampoos, lotions, and sunscreen. Please use only natural products on your child as well! Check to see a product's potential harm on cosmeticdatabase.com. I also use a lot of California Baby products on myself because it is not limited to only babies and children.

    Keeping Cradle Cap at bay...

    My 8 week old son developed a mild case of cradle cap. It's not supposed to bother the babies, but it bothered me so I bought this soap figuring at worst it would be a nice smelling organic soap to use for my son and at best it would cure his cradle cap. It's true that this produce is a great soap for baby-- it's all organic, comes highly recommended by childcare experts, and smells nice. Also, at night when my husband scrubs my son's head lightly with a washcloth and this soap it seems to remove the cradle cap flakes. Unfortunately, the flakes sometimes come back the next morning so it's not a perfect cure. That said, I also bought the California Baby Calendula cream, and when I added that to the mix the cradle cap goes away.All and all, I really like this product. 4/5 SF Native "SF Native" (San Francisco, Ca) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

    A Wonderfully Wild Ride Through Some of California's Bizarre Treasures

    This richly illustrated collection of the funny, bizarre, strange, and weird aspects and sites in California is an absolute delight of a book - just the perfect gift for those who share your joy of the craziness that makes life in this state so enjoyable. Mark Sceurman and Mark Moran have combed the roads and back ways of the state and have come across both tourist attractions and assorted oddities that make for a fast and hugely entertaining book. Beginning with an informative journey into California history, such as the curse of Griffith Park (a lot of curious but true facts all sculpted into a story by the fine writers!), the myth of 'La Llorna' that references the Hispanic richness of life here, and other legends, the book then takes the reader on a series of visits of the unnatural wonders, the 'unexplained phenomena', the strange beasts that inhabit both the land and the waters, landmarks that though odd are real - such as the Watts Towers, Litto's Hubcap Ranch, the Forestiere... 5/5 Grady Harp (Los Angeles, CA United States) - See all my reviews, December 19, 2009

    Can't get enough of if

    What a book, tons of stories, excellent content, that will entertain all ages, I bought it for my little brother, I wanted him to get interested in reading, on how fun and exciting, even thrilling, how many times is way better than a movie. This book has definitely done that and more, He can't wait to read a new story everyday! Seems to be the most exciting thing to do for him everyday. I highly recommend this book. when my mother it saw it and herd the stories from the book, she wanted to read it too, and now she waits for my little brother to read them to her, Its just a great book. I just can't emphasize how good this book is, I herd before some comments about how to know if a book will be good read, and they said that if you grab a book and just open and read a random page that page in itself should be able to captivate you and interest you in some way, so you will know its for you! and believe any page you open here will do that for you. 5/5 Erick S.

    Not as good as the cream

    I ordered the California Baby Calendula Everyday Lotion because we'd been using the Calendula cream exclusively on our baby, and the cream is rather expensive. I thought we'd be able to stretch the lotion out a bit more and get more bang for our buck because the lotion is less expensive than the cream and in a bigger container. We just received it and I've used it for the past 3 nights on our baby after her bath. The lotion is not as thick and rich as the cream, and I expected that to some extent. It's more on the 'runny' side though and doesn't soak into her skin for a bit. I'm going to continue to buy the cream and use it on her problem areas (she has infant rosacea on her cheeks and a rash on her arms), because the lotion is not as effective at calming her skin as the cream. I will probably continue to buy the lotion to use on the rest of her body. 3/5 Tina Ballinger (Southeast US) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

    Worked for my sensitive skin

    I have suffered from a type of dermatitis since I was young. Most creams cause mild to sever itching and irritation when rubbed into my skin.

    A bit disorganized

    I love Lonely Planet's guides because they give you in general insider information in a very detailed and organized manner. This particular guide about California, however, needs a bit of polishing.I live in San Francisco and thought about buying this guide to help organize for out-of-town visitors. I pick a place that I decide may be appealing to one or more of the people that I am entertaining, but then relating that place to a given map seems an impossible task. There are no references or links between the explanations and the maps provided before. Moreover, maps have the same colors and page appearance as the explanation, so it's hardly impossible to spot a map unless to turn several pages over. I believe they should look at the Malaysia, Brunei and Singapore guide, which is done in a complete and at the same time, easy to follow guide. They added there the map page and the number for you to put your finger directly on the map. Then, maps should be highlighted on the... 3/5 Mili - See all my reviews This review is from: Lonely Planet California (Regional Guide) (Paperback) I love Lonely Planet's guides because they give you in general insider information in a very detailed and organized manner.

    Not practical on Kindle. ok on Ipad

    I purchased this guide for my Kindle. Reading books on Kindle is perfect. A travel guide however does not work well with Kindle. Maps and so are to small. Colour would help. And if you dont's have a touch screen (I don't) the links are not easy to use. On my Ipad however this works much better. 2/5 Laurens - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

    Their paper products are the best. I was very disappointed with the look + feel of the eBook version, it has just hyperlinks and a very poor interface. 1/5 horizontal_integration (Santa Monica CA USA) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

    California Baby

    Not worth the money

    I typically like California Baby products, but this one is over-priced and doesn't live up to its claims. The bubble wand feature doesn't work at all; the bubble bath just won't make bubbles that way. The scent is very faint. You need to use 1/4 to 1/3 of the bottle for any significant aromatherapy which makes it a really expensive bath. You get the same effect using a few drops of essential oil.A much better product is the 100% Pure bubble bath. They bubble, are less expensive, have a great scent, and are made with gentle, organic ingredients. I only wish they had more than three flavors to choose from.For a strong eucalyptus bath, the 100% Pure Eucalyptus Sea Therapy Bath is unbeatable. It doesn't bubble, but has a potent fragrance and even tingles your skin. It's amazing. 2/5 Fergie (California) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

    It really works

    My 20 month got a cold and I decided to try this. It was amazing. Her stuffy nose cleaned well and she could finally sleep during the night. I noticed, some could not make bubbles. People, you are supposed to dip in the bottle not in the water. It does make plenty of bubbles. Just make sure you read and follow the instructions. 5/5 Zuzkin - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

    I absolutely love this bubble bath

    I always have a bottle of this on hand to help with congestion. We first tried this when our son was still an infant and was very congested. I like that it helps with his congestion without the need for medication. They also now make a spray for bedding and a gel that you can rub on the chest. To us this is well worth the money. 5/5 christineu - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

    Good Value for Money

    Being a pretty busy person, and usually hating to read travel guides, I find that the DK Eyewitness Guides are the only ones I can stand reading - in fact, I find them enjoyable.Their main force is that you don't have to imagine whether a destination would be something for you - the guide shows you what to expect, where others just tell you about it. That is the series' main force: They are very easily digestible.That said, an Eyewitness Guide can't stand alone, so my wife usually acquires a Lonely Planet guide for the place, and I read the Eyewitness Guide, and the two complement each other nicely.At 630 pages, this is the largest Eyewitness guide I have seen to date, but it also covers a very large subject: All of California, including large and comprehensive sections on both San Francisco and Los Angeles.In addition the introduction, Survival Guide and Travellers' Needs sections that are found in every Eyewitness guide, this book consists of four main sections, roughly... 4/5 Mark Seemann (Copenhagen, Denmark) - See all my reviews, May 13, 2002

    I live in California, but....

    I picked up this book to see what California has to offer. Sometimes living in a place, you forget what different museums, restaurants and different things to do yet. So, this book was an excellent choice for me! It also includes lots of information on San Francisco, where I have not been yet, but really want to visit. It also has a section on Las Vegas which is pretty good too. So, if you are looking to see and do everything California has to offer, this guide is for you. It includes hotel information and restaurants according to location. This book is an excellent tool, showing you just what you'll see when you visit different locations in California.

    Best Travel series: easy to use, clear, great organization

    This book was a great find! Now I only use the Eyewitness travel books. It is organized in sections based on region. Then each section is organized by area. So everything in the book is organizaed by area. This lets you plan your days extremely easily, if you want cultural, arts, or historical. And all the points of interest are great. Has things for the Adventrous and the Classic traveler. 5/5 Paul Gaffner (Los Angeles) - See all my reviews This review is from: Eyewitness Travel Guide to California (Paperback) This book was a great find!

    California Baby

    Saved My Sanity

    I have a one year old baby who has had yeast problems nearly from birth. At one point she had angry, red yeast rashes in her diaper area, under her chin, in both armpits, and behind both ears. I took her to the doctor time and again and tried every anti-fungal and antibacterial cream they recommended. While some worked for a short time, none of them delivered lasting results. I was going crazy trying to solve this problem. I read that talc powder works really well and it does. Of course, even the product label talks about the inhalation risk to babies (not to mention the risk of ovarian cancer). I tried a cornstarch powder thinking I would get the benefit of powder without the risk of talc. Turns out cornstarch is a food source to yeast. Who knew? When I found this powder it was as a last resort. I loved that it was talc-free but still offered anti-fungal protection. After using this powder regularly my baby no longer has yeast rash. She is completely cleared up. Any... 5/5 Kyle White "balletgal" (San Diego, CA) - See all my reviews, October 15, 2008

    great powder but pricey

    I love the texture and scent of this powder. I do think people should know that it does contain tea tree oil which is a phytoestrogen, so if you are buying it to avoid phthalates and synthetic fragrances, you will be getting this instead. It has a nice drying effect, and is silky to the touch. I do think it helped clear up my baby's diaper rash. 5/5 astase - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

    As Used By An Adult

    As an adult user ;) , I'm very pleased with California Baby's Non-Talc Powder. I use it after showering, and especially like its anti-fungal (tea tree)/anti-bacterial properties (lavender), added extras not found in the other after shower body powders i've used. Powder goes on smoothly while dispensing just enough per "shake". 5/5 Carrie B "mommycha" (IL,USA) - See all my reviews This review is from: California Baby Non-Talc Powder, Canister - Calming, 2.5-Ounce (Health and Beauty) As an adult user ;) , I'm very pleased with California Baby's Non-Talc Powder.
