5.0

This book was special to me, growing up between El Monte and Baldwin Park and not knowing too much of the history of so many places that hold cultural memories for me, made me feel seen. I appreciate that while it is a historical text with an abundance of research, the short essays made it easy to understand. I wish I had this book 10 or 15 years ago so that I could have a better understanding of the place I came from.
