Phineas Banning built Southern California's first telegraph and railroad lines, stagecoach routes, and a major harbor -- now one of the world's largest and most vital, the Port of Los Angeles.... This is the story of Phineas Banning. It is also the story of Southern California and the birth of the Golden State, whose growth and transformations were inextricably entwined with Bannings' own.
