"Twenty-four years after his first volume appeared, Starr's enthusiasm still bubbles from virtually every page. His command of hundreds of works of fiction, buildings, pieces of art, and scores of fascinating characters, the well-known and the obscure, and the intelligence and skill with which he handles this freight train worth of material is amazing." - San Francisco Chronicle review of The Dream Endures

"Kevin Starr gives Californians back their past - from science to art and from environmental awareness to an infatuation with the automobile - by reminding them how the state evolved from a West Coast outback to the center of American civilization." - The San Diego Union-Tribune review of The Dream Endures
