If thinking about museums and historical hot spots brings to mind Washington, D.C. and its Smithsonian or Paris and the Louvre, get ready for an amendment. According to the newly published Museum Companion to Los Angeles, the city that boasts the most museums in the world is none other than Tinsel Town. This comprehensive, easy-to-use and intriguing guide is available to assist the city’s 11 million residents and 25 million annual visitors discover and explore nearly 300 museums, historic houses, libraries with special collections, botanical gardens and zoos in Los Angeles.
The book’s well-designed pages and clear, concise
summaries of the special sites are intriguing, whether in search of
traditional art museums, historical sites, whimsical collections of
all kinds or movie memorabilia. All entries include the essential
information of addresses, phone numbers, Web sites, hours,
directions, admission prices and handicapped access. Detailed maps,
floor and garden plans and 800 photos give readers a clear sense of
what to expect from each location.
The book includes world-famous and hidden cultural treasures, many of them listed nowhere else. Perhaps most appealing to travelers and residents alike is the excellent organization of Museum Companion to Los Angeles. Its table of contents, complete index and geographically sorted listings make the book a winner from the get-go.
Author Borislav Stanic was
inspired to write Museum
Companion to Los Angeles when he visited the city and discovered
that, surprisingly, no museum guidebook on Los Angeles existed.
Stanic’s special interest in museums reflects his background in art
history and photography.
Stanic is the award-winning author whose previous work includes
critically acclaimed book, Los
Angeles Attractions.
The book is available at your favorite bookstore,
museum store, or direct from the publisher (www.museonbooks.com).
