About this edition: This is a story of the southern California chaparral where it edges into the Mohave Desert, a place of ripping Santa Ana winds and unpredicted earthquakes; it is the story of a people there in the late 1940s and early 1950s, a few Jews among the first farmers, who had cut out a chunk of it and raised roses with a passion equal to the remembrance of their diaspora.
