Book Talk: Paul Haddad on 'Inventing Paradise'

LAist's resident City Treks expert Paul Haddad has a new book out on our fair city, Inventing Paradise: The Power Brokers Who Created the Dream of Los Angeles, focused on the moguls like Henry Huntington and William Mulholland who had an outsized effect on the shape of L.A. He’ll speak with journalist Josh Stephens at Skylight Books.

Can’t make it this week? Haddad continues his local book tour over the next few weeks, with appearances June 17 at Vroman's Books in Pasadena, June 27 at Village Well Books in Culver City and July 8 at Chevalier's Books in Larchmont Village.
