Publisher's Synopsis

Covering all of LA's diverse corners, the Rough Guide is full of illuminating accounts of all the city's attractions, from Hollywood and the beaches to the Getty museum and the Miracle Mile. Los Angeles is arguably the most confusing city in America with no true centre of orientation. The Rough Guide changes that with an intuitive lay-out that clearly explains all that LA has to offer. The guide is also packed withcritical reviews of restaurants and accommodation for every price range, and the best of LA's nightlife. On top of all that, perceptive discussions on LA's history, politic situations and scandals, and famous figures abound.
