Abstract
ALTHOUGH declared the American frontier officially closed in 1890, the processes of exploration, settlement, and community building continued in remote parts of the country. Some recalcitrant pockets of the arid west remained unsettled well into the twentieth century often in counterpoint to adjacent, relatively well-populated regions. Turn-of-the-century Los Angeles was booming but, scarcely ninety miles east, large portions of the Mojave Desert remained desolate and virtually empty, the human vacuum created by diminishment of the indigenous Indian population not yet filled by Anglo settlers.
