Book excerpt: Although the period of active life of San Francisco has been a short one, as historical periods go, it has been crowded with incident. Enough of the latter could be found to present a vivid picture of the career of the metropolis of the Pacific coast, but in this work something more has been attempted than a mere recital of occurrences. It has been the purpose of the author to trace the causes of the growth of the City, and to describe the manifold activities of its citizens. This is volume one out of two of one of the most thrilling and detailed histories of San Francisco.

Book excerpt: Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from San Francisco, Vol. 1: A History of the Pacific Coast Metropolis The information, and the imagination necessary to present a graphic and more extended account were not lacking, but the historian was dealing with the events of centuries, and was compelled, while observing the limitations of space, to preserve the sense of proportion. To him tragedies and great calamities were as the ripples on the surface of a pond when a stone is thrown into its depths. When the transitory disturbance ceased the stone was forgotten. Whether consciously or unconsciously Gibbon recognized that it is the sum total of human happenings and experience which make history, and by a process of condensation which permitted him to mo mentarily turn the limelight of his genius on significant occurrences he succeeded in producing a picture from which a vivid impression is derived, although the canvas is crowded in places to the point of confusion.
