Our Italy (1891) is Warner's account of a trip he made to Southern California in 1890. He describes conditions after the collapse of the 1886-1887 real estate boom and dubs the state south of the Sierra Madres "our Italy." He focuses on the region's economic future: its promise as a healthy, productive residence, agricultural developments (particularly the citrus industry), climate and industry. He devotes less attention to beauty spots and tourist attractions, but he does discuss the Grand Canyon, Yosemite, and Monterey.  aAlso available in digital form on the Library of Congress Web site.  aNo known restrictions on publication. 0aCalifornia, SouthernxDescription and travel. 0aUrbanizationzCalifornia. 0aReal estate developmentzCalifornia. 0aAgriculturezCalifornia. 0aBusinesszCalifornia.41dcalbkf168qtuhttp://hdl.loc.gov/loc.gdc/calbk.168  c51956d51956
