On April 18, 1906, San Francisco citizens woke to find their world crumbling as an earthquake turned the city to rubble and ignited fires that burned the rest of it. More than 10,000 died. Kurzman presents a terrifying glimpse into this surreal scene as told by the survivors. Maps. Photos. www.alibris.com
