Description

--This book can be used as a guidebook for the city, organized into four Tours: Ecology, Transit, Labor, and Dissent. --Filled with historical detail of the layers beneath and behind the City's modern-day landmarks and views, and stories that are a key to understanding the existing artifacts and monuments to the past, as well as the enormous changes of the present day. --Abundant photos, illustrations, and maps. --The subject of gentrification of cities (especially in regards to San Francisco) is regularly in the news.

This book takes a critical look at the city's history and connects the dots underneath the usual stories of the Gold Rush, cable cars, and sourdough bread. --A much-needed radical history of San Francisco that will change any readers way they see the city. --Perfect for the "armchair traveler."
