THE rush of modern Los Angeles we hurry by,
In perhaps unknowing, those historic spots with
which are associated the early events that
brought government and great civic growth.
That the motorists, in seeking new objectives of in-
terest, may enjoy moments of retrospect and better ap-
preciate the significance of places where Los Angeles'
colorful groundwork was laid, the Howard Automobile
Company of Los Angeles presents this booklet.
The historical data from which most of the pages are
written, was supplied by Mrs. A. S. C. Forbes, chair-
man of the Committee on Landmarks of the Historical
Society of Southern California and author of the splen-
did books, "California Missions and Land Marks" and
"Mission Tales in the Days of the Dons."
