First Printing, 1930 Date On Title Page, Of This Third, Revised Edition Of These Massive Reminiscences Of Early Los Angeles By The Head Of Its Most Prominent Banking Family Circa 1880-1920. Light Wear, Gilt Complete But Faint,…Cloth Clean, No Marks, Front Hinge Mostly Cracked, Endpapers With Some Browning As Usual, Fraying At Ends Of Spine. Per Wikipedia, Harris Newmark (1834 - 1916) Was A Jewish American Businessman, Philanthropist, And Historian Who Was Born In The West Prussian City Of Löbau (Now Lubawa, Poland). Newmark Immigrated To The United States In 1853. He Sailed From Europe To New York City, And Then To San Francisco. He Joined His Older Brother And Other Family In Los Angeles. His Branch Of The Family Were Among The Founders And Developers Of The Region. At The End Of 1885, Newmark Retired From The Grocery Business To Devote More Time To His Real Estate And Investment Pursuits. In 1886, He And Four Other Businessmen: His Nephew Kaspare Cohn, John D. Bicknell, Stephen M. White, And I.W. Hellman—Purchased A 5,000-Acre (20 Km2) Ranch Located In East Los Angeles Called Rancho Repetto. The Land Had Been Owned By An Italian Settler Named Alessandro Repetto, Who Had Bequeathed The Ranch To His Brother Antonio. Newmark's Group Bought The Inheritance For Us$60,000, Or About $12 Per Acre. In May 1899, Newmark Subdivided The Tract Owned By Him And His Nephew, After Contracting With William Mulholland To Design And Construct A Suitable Water System For The New Settlement.

When The Town Incorporated In 1920, It Renamed The City As Montebello. Newmark Contributed To Developing Many Local Institutions, Such As The Los Angeles County Library And Others Supporting Children's Welfare. He Wrote A Memoir, Sixty Years In Southern California: 1853-1913, Which Has Been Cited In Dozens Of Academic Papers And Books. It Is Described As The Los Angeles Equivalent Of A Pepys Diary. Photographic Plates, 182 Illustrations (illustrator).

Hardcover. Condition: Good. No Jacket. 2nd Edition. Second edition, revised and augmented. This title is one of the important books in the Zamorano Eighty list of books on California and the American West. Octavo rebound in library-type, green buckram. B&W illustrations. Condition: rebound in a pretty clunky binding, but judging… from the absence of library markings, was probably done as a utilitarian measure. The binding is rubbed & a bit worn; there is a previous owner's inked and phone number on the 1st free endpaper and above that is the rubber-stamp of an old L. A. bookshop that's no longer in business. Endpapers are toned. Otherwise, this a good, tight, and very serviceable copy. Pages: xxxiii, 732.
