The San Francisco experience / Harold Gilliam ; edited by Ann Gilliam. - Garden City, NY : Doubleday, c1972. - xv, 247 p. : ill. 22 cm.
Subtitle on book jacket: The romantic lore behind the fabulous facade of the bay area.
One of the most prominent writers in the American West looks at one of the world's most spectacular metropolitan areas in a variety of ways. He describes the many wonders that are San Francisco's unique setting, and then looks behind and around them-in time and in space-to show how history, man and nature conspired to create a truly magnificent environment. The result is a fresh approach to a famous city revealing, not only her beautiful face, but the centuries of fact, legend and romance that have helped to make it so, and the forces-natural and man-made-working today that will inevitably change it tomorrow.
