About This Item
Boston: Houghton Mifflin Company, 1948. Text by Herb Caen. Photographs by Max Yavno. There have been lots of books written about SAN FRANCISCO, some fact and some fiction, but there has never yet been a book about the City with text by her most popular journalist and illustrations by a famous photographer. The pattern of abrupt hills and swarming streets, the graceful arches of her magnificent bridges, the parks and the hodgepodge of buildings, the beaches and cliffs of the Pacific Coast and the activity of the water front, the trast of the dazzling clarity and woolly fog, are all caught in this BRILLIANT COLLECTION of photographs . 119 pag.. 1st edition. Cloth with damaged dustjacket. 8vo.
