Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Fifty synopses of film scenes alongside insightful location essays and evocative full-color film stills. This is an engaging and highly visual citywide tour of well- and lesser-known films shot on location in the birthplace of cinema and screen spectacle. The heart of Hollywood's star-studded film industry for more than a century, Los Angeles and its abundant and ever-changing localesfrom the Santa Monica Pier to the infamous and now-defunct Ambassador Hotelhave set the scene for a wide variety of cinematic treasures, from Touch of Evil to Chinatown, They Live! to the coming-of-age classic Boyz n the Hood. With its meandering and beautifully fractured topography, Los Angeles continues to lure filmmakers into its clutches, affording an endless panoply of locations to prop up both character and story. This second volume of World Film Locations: Los Angeles expands the careful curation of the first volume to further reveal both the famed and hidden parts of a city in constant flux.

Handwritten document on laid paper. Signed by Jared Cowan. Witnessed and signed by Kentucky pioneers John Mahan, David Cowan and John Cowan. One of the earliest settlers of Kentucky and a pioneer of Fort Harrod, Jared Cowan had served as a private in Captain James Harrod's Company of Kentucky Pioneers in 1774, along with his brother John. Jared Cowan is sometimes confused in the historical record with his brother James, who was killed by Indians in 1774. Jared, however, lived in Mercer County until his death in 1795, with his will attested and inventoried in 1796. Signer James Mahan received 200 acres from James Harrod in 1787 after serving as Harrod's farm manager but is also strongly suspected of having had an affair with Harrod's wife, Ann, and of being the actual father of Harrod's daughter, Margaret.
