Reader reviews for The Los Angeles River: Its Life, Death, and Possible Rebirth

From the publisher

From its beginnings in the suburbs of the San Fernando Valley to its mouth at the Pacific Ocean, the Los Angeles River is made almost entirely of concrete. Chain-link fence and barbed wire line its course. Graffiti marks its banks. Discarded sofas, shopping trolleys and litter line its channel. Little water flows in the river most of the year.
