How do city-regions successfully compete in the global age? Mixing history and policy analysis, Steven Erie offers a compelling account of the improbable rise of Los Angeles, explaining how a region with no natural harbor and a metropolis situated a distant twenty miles from the coast managed to become the world's ninth largest economy and a leading trade and transportation center.
