San Francisco is the crested jewel of the California coast, a city which has been home to convicts and charlatans, millionaires and movie stars. The last stop on the journey West across America, or the first stop from Asia, San Francisco remained Wild long after the rest of United States was tamed. Tales of Old San Francisco bathes the reader in the rich mysteries of the city, from Chinatown to Haight-Ashbury, the gold rush to earthquakes, crooks to rock stars, beatniks to Hippies, and the Gold Gate Bridge to Alcatraz. The city's history brims with colourful characters and extraordinary events, and this book gives all the highlights.
