Lotus Land is the story of the pioneers and desendants who built a tiny desert pueblo into the City of Los Angeles...a Shangri-La that would one day feed the world its dreams.This huge,sprawling saga takes the reader from public celebrations such as the Great Pasadena Chariot Race to the scrouge of an epidemic and on to the private domain of forbidden marriage and unexpected love.It moves from the plague-ridden villages of China to the deadly deserts of Sonora and from barren,fruitless fields to lush orange groves that would eventually blossom into the City of Angels.
