People all over the world have seen Los Angeles’s famed "Hollywood" sign and the iconic domed Griffith Observatory. Both are part of Griffith Park, a place visited by more than 10 million people each year--more than Yosemite and Grand Canyon National Parks combined. Rugged and vast, the 4,511-acre Griffith Park encompasses a sprawling 70-mile long network of trails, ranging from paved paths through manicured landscapes to challenging ridgeline climbs, and is a destination for hikers, trail runners, cyclists, equestrians, picnickers, and museum-goers. It’s a unique outdoor space in a city that is not well known for its outdoor amenities. Discovering Griffith Park uses the park’s extensive trail network as an anchor to explore the park in full, whether on foot, wheel, or hoof. Readers will also find out where the best views of the Hollywood sign are, where they can catch free Shakespeare on summer evenings, and how to attend one of the legendary Los Angeles Breakfast Club meetings for good food, good friends, and a bit of early morning learning

Trails of Yesterday, first published in 1921, is ranked with the best firsthand accounts of ranching on the northern Great Plains in the 1870s and 1880s. This classic of cow-country literature is rich in authentic frontier history. Born in England in 1842, John Bratt came to America when he was twenty-two, and in 1866 he joined a wagon train traveling from Nebraska City to Fort Phil Kearny. Bratt gives a vivid view of the country along the Great Platte River Road, reporting on the condition of the trail, meetings with Indians such as Dull Knife, and encounters with buffalo herds. There are splendid descriptions of the few forts then protecting the long trail—Forts Kearny, McPherson, Mitchell, and Sedgwick—and of the road ranches of John Burke and the notorious Jack Morrow, among others. Bratt was a cattle rancher for more than two decades and was instrumental in the settlement of North Platte, Nebraska.

Gene, Hoppy, Roy, The Lone Ranger, The Cisco Kid, Gabby Hayes, Lash LaRue, and Red Ryder are just a few whose stories are brought to life, with plenty of behind the scenes intrigue. Enjoy the Trail!"Charlie LeSueur hosts a Q &A panel for actors and actresses better than anyone I know. His knowledge of the western genre is as good as it gets. This book is a must read"...Michael DanteBy 1929 it was becoming obvious to filmmakers that sound was here to stay and that they needed to change with the times. Twenty years later they faced another milestone in entertainment with the advancement of television. However this new form wasn't greeted with open arms and studios, fearing this new medium would keep people at home, ordered their stars not to appear on television or they would face suspension or worse. Leave it to the cowboy stars to fearlessly blaze the trail from the big to small screen, but it wasn't without a fight. Here are the true stories of the ups and downs of heroes like Hopalong Cassidy, Gene Autry, Roy Rogers, The Lone Ranger, The Cisco Kid, Gabby Hayes, Colonel Tim McCoy, Russell Hayden, Lash LaRue, William Elliott, Allan "Rocky" Lane in their attempts to make the leap to TV. Each has quite a story to tell in their battles with the powerful studios and they're all told within these pages.
