Thirsty is the history of Los Angeles and its fraught relationship
with water. As a city on the make since the early twentieth
century, Los Angeles' resources fought hard to keep up with its
unchecked growth. The city's water chief William Mulholland built
an aqueduct to grab water over 200 miles away in Owens Valley, but
it wasn't enough. Thirsty is the gripping tale of Los Angeles' epic
battles for water, the larger-than-life characters that shaped a
city's destiny, and the man-made tragedy that killed 400 and
forever changed the way water would be harnessed and allocated.
