100 Years of the Los Angeles County Fair, 25 Years of Stories

By David Allen

Book Overview

100 Years of the Los Angeles County Fair, 25 Years of Stories contains virtually everything David Allen has penned about the fair from 1998 to 2021. Columns, feature stories, concert reviews, previews of the fair, short items, a blog post, even a news story about a lawsuit. It's all here.

This book takes the approach that the Los Angeles County Fair - via these stories of people, attractions, concert lineups, pricing, sights, sounds and smells - is worth documenting. Because even if nearly all of the particulars have come and gone, the last quarter-century of the fair is worth setting down in detail.

You'll find a lot of fun stories, some silliness, a few changes noted as they were happening, moments that may bring back memories, elegies for elements now lost.

Also, a lot of jokes about foods on a stick.
