Vanishing Orange County
ISBN: 9781531638627 / Angielski / Twarda / 2008 / 130 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Orange County formally separated from Los Angeles County in 1889, and there's been no looking back. Wilderness gave way to rich farmlands, where oranges, lemons, avocados, and walnuts made agriculture the new county's most important industry; the region was actually named for the prevalence of its citrus groves. The 20th century brought with it plenty of entrepreneurs, including Walter Knott and later Walt Disney, along with the aerospace industry, oil drilling, beach culture, and more.

Organized baseball in Orange County began in the late 1880s when community teams began forming among oil well workers.

ISBN: 9781531612702 / Angielski / Twarda / 2001 / 130 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Incorporated in 1909, Huntington Beach remained a sleepy seaside town until the city's legendary oil boom in the 1920s.

Pictured here in nearly 200 vintage photographs is the evolution of this small seaside village into a classic, Southern California beach city, known as Surf City to nearly a million...

Early Polo Grounds
ISBN: 9781531640828 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 130 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The Polo Grounds is one of baseball's most sacred ballparks. Built below Coogan's Bluff in 1891, the bathtub-shaped stadium played host to iconic baseball moments, including Willie Mays's famous catch in the 1954 World Series and Bobby Thomson's "shot heard 'round the world." The era before those moments holds a history all its own, when the New York Giants, Yankees, and the football Giants shared the park. The dawn of the 20th century through the 1920s is a rarely seen chapter in Polo Grounds history, and it is presented here for the first time in all of its photographic glory.
