Reseña del libro "Mr. Jory (en Inglés)"

Wilbur Hall considers Los Angeles ",the most fabulous American community,", and in Mr. Jory he delineates the pattern he believes an American city should follow if progress and industry are to be attained.Adam Jory was a stripling when he came to the modest city. His first few hundred dollars bought him a lot on Vermont Ave. A bright lad, he sold at a profit when the car-line started building that way. He sensed that Los Angeles would grow, and he seized every opportunity. He became associated with men who were interested in the building of a tremendous city.Instead of marrying the lovely Beulah, he chose Irene, daughter of a financier. She was his match, and he grew wealthy, ruthless, but still clinging to ideals. He acquired ownership of a newspaper and here life changes. He used his paper to fight graft, political corruption, and labor-hating views. His idea was to make a city for the people, rather than for a select few. He battled successfully, but gained a horde of enemies who crushed his particular empire.",Mr. Jory finds he is a lonely man, but he discovers a philosophy of living for others.", &mdash,Honolulu Advertiser._,
