I. California : from past to present -- pt. II. Signposts to city scenes -- pt. III. Up and down the state -- pt. IV. Appendices. 330 $aAlive with the exuberance, contradictions, and variety of the Golden State, this Depression-era guide to California is more than 700 pages of information that is, as David Kipen writes in his spirited introduction, "anecdotal, opinionated, and altogether habit-forming." Describing the history, culture, and roadside attractions of the 1930's, the WPA Guide to California features some of the very best anonymous literature of its era, with writing by luminaries such as San Francisco poet Kenneth Rexroth, composer-writer- hobo Harry Partch, and authors Tillie Olsen and Kenneth Patchen. 606 $aCities and towns$zCalifornia$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aWorld War, 1939-1945$zCalifornia 606 $aHISTORY / United States / State & Local / West (AK, CA, CO, HI, ID, MT, NV, UT, WY)$2bisacsh 607 $aCalifornia$vGuidebooks 615 0$aCities and towns$xHistory 615 0$aWorld War, 1939-1945 615 7$aHISTORY / United States / State & Local / West (AK, CA, CO, HI, ID, MT, NV, UT, WY). 676 $a940.53/794 676 $a940.53/794/091732 700 $aFederal Writers Project of the Works Progress Administration$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 712 02$aFederal Writers' Project. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9911144680303321 997 $aUNINA
