500 _aSubtitle on book jacket: The romantic lore behind the fabulous facade of the bay area.
520 _aOne 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.
