A runaway San Francisco Chronicle bestseller; Cool Gray City of Love is a one-of-a-kind book for a one-of-a-kind city. It's a love song in 49 chapters to an extraordinary place; taking 49 different sites around the city as points of entry and inspiration-from a seedy intersection in the Tenderloin to the soaring sea cliffs at Lands End. Encompassing the city's Spanish missionary past; a gold rush; a couple of earthquakes; the Beats; the hippies; and the dot-com boom; this book is at once a rambling walking tour; a natural and human history; and a celebration of place itself-a guide to loving any place more faithfully and fully.
