Title: An Interesting Coffee Table Read
Review: I had to read Kaplan's LA Lost & Found for my english 102 class at Cal State Univ. of L.A. At first it seems like yet another boring architectual photograph book, but after you browse through a few of its pages you get a different feeling from the book. The feeling that you've actually been given the chance to see the City of Los Angeles the way it was before all the hoopla and constant rebuilding. Kaplan covers the aesthetic change of Los Angeles over a span of many decades. By using high quality photographs he presents us with the past of Los Angeles, such as the trolley cars, old hollywood, and inventive new style of architectual design. Even though we only read three chapters of the book for my class, this book is still and interesting piece of work to have in your home or office so people get flip through it and view the many brilliant photographs.
