The city of Los Alamitos and the contiguous; unincorporated community of Rossmoor exemplify small-town America amid the populous western Orange County sprawl. Their tree-lined streets; well-kept homes and first-rate schools are reflected in Rossmoors selection as the No. 1 suburb in California (and No. 9 nationwide) in a 2012 study by Coldwell Banker Realty. The evolution of Los Alamitos from cattle ranches and sugar beet factory town to World War II military town and ultimately into residential neighborhoods took a century. Meanwhile; the planned "walled city of Rossmoor" was created between 1955 and 1961. Despite annexation talk; Rossmoor and "Los Al" coexist apart together; so to speak; on Long Beachs outskirts. Author Larry Strawther traces the histories of these interdependent sister communities; which epitomize the reality in the legend of the Orange County lifestyle.

1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Excellent Resource!By Its Just MeI teach drama; and; in the past; when I arrived at the Shakespeare unit; I always found myself scrambling to find good two-person scenes for females. This resource has helped tremendously; as it includes all of the high points of those scenes plus some additional information that helps my students get into character. I would love another book of this kind with scenes from the less read tragedies and comedies of Shakespeare.
