Book Description
Hollywood! A place that attracts millions who dream of fame and fortune. Their name in lights. Adoring fans crowding around them begging for an autograph. Besieged by paparazzi. Leisurely lunches at The Four Seasons. Mansions in Beverly Hills and the South of France. The Impersonators is the story of those who made it and those who didn't. Their stories are fiction, like the lives they leave. Like the movies they watch. Yet, the novel gives an honest insider's look at Hollywood. And into the real lives of the real people in Los Angeles, America's second largest city. A tapestry of skin colors and exotic languages and religions and lifestyles. Of Sunday afternoons on sandy beaches and hikes in her mountains. A sort of Lost Angeles for others. Those who submit to the allure of the drug dealers. The suffering. Those homeless who huddle in the shadows of the VA center on Wilshire or gather around smokey campfires along the Los Angeles River and panhandle on freeway ramps. This is their story. Of their broken dreams. Their shattered lives under the sunny skies of southern California.

"In an atomic war, blast, heat, and initial radiation could kill millions close to ground zero of nuclear bursts. Many more millions-everybody else-could be threatened by radioactive fallout. But most of these could be saved. The purpose of this booklet is to show how to escape death from fallout. Everyone, even those far from a likely target, would need shelter from fallout. Your Federal Government has a shelter policy based on the knowledge that most of those beyond the range of blast and heat will survive if they have adequate protection from fallout." -Author's description.
