About This Item
Bramhall House, 1959. Very Good/No Jacket. Quarto, hardcover, VG in blue boards. No dj. 228 pp. Illustrated with Photos throughout with more than 250 photos in black-and-white; in this attractive portrait of San Francisco, Conrad Barnaby leaves no cobblestone unturned to show his city's attractive ways and by-ways; from the 'Prologue:' "Yes, we like our city better than Los Angeles, better than Chicago, better than New York. A San Franciscan isn't quite as smug as the Parisians who declare, "Why should I travel? I'm here!"--but he borders on it. He appreciates Gene Fowler's tribute, "Every man should be allowed to love two cities--his own and San Francisco. 228 pp. including index.
