Glendora

By Ryan Lee Price

Book Overview

Through a side by side comparison of historic and modern photographs, Ryan Lee Price illustrates the evolution of Glendora from a quaint town known for its abundant citrus groves to the beloved suburban community it is today, affectionately called "The Pride of the Foothills" by locals.

On April 1, 1887, the first lot in Glendora was sold, and in the years since, sage and oak trees gave way to farms and orange trees. Acres of citrus trees soon yielded to rows of houses, and what is left of the orchards of yesteryear are small backyard orange groves, century-old farmhouses, and memories of the people who made Glendora their home. Although Glendora has evolved from a dusty village into a city, it is still a small town with plenty of history. Ryan Lee Price spent his formative years growing up in Glendora, and no matter where he lives, he considers it his hometown.
