Between the devil & the deep blue bay : the struggle to save San Francisco Bay / by Harold Gilliam. - San Francisco : Chronicle Books, c1969. - 151 p. : ill., maps. 23 cm.

This book puts the battle for the Bay in perspective: historically, politically, economically, legally. Against the story of those who have plundered, destroyed and filled the Bay since the beginnings of San Francisco, it sets the work of conservation-minded private citezens and politicians who are working sonctructively to save the Bay. It is already too late to correct the mistakes caused by a centruy of greed, shortsightedness and apathy. Between the devil and the deep blue bay is a warning and a plea for action-now--before the process of destruction of San Farnacisco Bay is irreversible.
