Fulton believes the region's discontinuities should be mended by a new consensus and managed by region-wide governments with the political will to carry out plans on the scale of a William Mulholland, Henry Huntington or Otis Chandler.
—Publishers Weekly (starred review)
"A surprisingly lively case study of the battles and alliances of politics, business and people that formed—or deformed—a great American city."
