Los Angeles: Capitol of the Third World CBB-0791
by David Reiff

Writing before the riots of 1992, Reiff found not a city of dreams but a
city of bitter contradictions, a city that, like the U.S. itself, was being
transformed by immigrants and refugees from Latin America and East
Asia from an extension of Europe to a universe patchwork of peoples
of the world. 1991.
