Book excerpt: Crestwood Hill is like no other place in the vast metropolis of L.A. - its history is the result of the singular optimism that defined Southern California in the post-WW2 era. A handful of the region's optimists banded together to form a cooperative intent on building a utopian community. And they did. Author Cory Buckner follows the Mutual Housing Association as it purchased the land, designed and built the houses for its members and faced mounting difficulties establishing a truly communal community.
