{"product_id":"la-jolla-carol-olten-9781531637231","title":"La Jolla","description":"La Jolla, California, famously known as \"The Jewel,\" is noted for its natural beauty and appealing Mediterranean-like climate. Magnificent sea cliffs and caves, bathing coves, and sandy beaches have attracted visitors, developers, and residents since the 1880s. By the early 1900s, a small community developed with artists congregating to the internationally known Green Dragon Colony. Newspaper heiress Ellen Browning Scripps and her half-sister Eliza Virginia established residences and became the community's renowned philanthropists. Many beautiful homes and institutions, along with a growing commercial district next to the sea, owe their designs to architect Irving Gill. Today La Jolla still attracts visitors from around the world and is home to the rich, the famous, the avant-garde, and intelligentsia.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Carol Olten, Heather Kuhn, La Jolla Historical Society\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 153163723X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781531637231\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Arcadia Publishing Library Editions\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/01\/2008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 130\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.91lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.61h x 6.69w x 0.38d","brand":"Carol Olten","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43995041005823,"sku":"9781531637231","price":31.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_b3a33a0b-97e7-4ac9-84ce-af2242cb4f1c.jpg?v=1683333600","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/la-jolla-carol-olten-9781531637231","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
