This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1915 edition. Excerpt: ...It proves that the general public, who have so generously supported, in a moral and financial way. the charitable work of these organizations, have not misplaced their confidence. And, if such be reguired, it should stimulate the members of these rders to greater and more concerted efforts in behalf of California 's homeless children---a work in which no other fraternal order engages, and one No influence, of any nature, should make it possible for this wretch, --or those of whom he niay be but an agent, ---to escape. Now is the time for San Francisco 's law-abiding and order-loving citizens to take matters in their own hands, and if they do this, and be not swerved from their purpose, the world will know who, and what, was responsible for the bomb outrage. In The Grizzly Bear for May, 1916, appeared an interesting and extremely valuable monograph on "The Locality of the Broderick-Terry Duel," by Hermanii Schussler, civil engineer of San Francisco and chief engineer of the Spring Valley Water Company. Mr. Schussler was interested in the work of locating the exact spot where this historic duel took place, by Judge John F. Davis of San Francisco, then Grand President of the Native Sons of the Golden West. Mr. Schussler's report to Judge Davis, under the title, "The Locality of the Broderick-Terry Duel of September 13, 1859," has now been printed in attractive brochure form, and is being distributed, by the Historic Landmarks Committee of the Native Sons of the Golden West. "The Legacy of the Exposition," is the title of a handsome volume just issued by the PanamaPacific International Exposition Company, San Francisco, and which will be highly prized, by all those fortunate enough to secure...

When Americans migrated westward, they took their politics with them, making San Francisco a microcosm of the nation as the Civil War loomed. Spurred by the promise of gold, hungry adventurers flocked to San Francisco in search of opportunity on the eve of the Civil War. The city flourished and became a magnet for theater. Some of the first buildings constructed in San Francisco were theater houses, and John Wilkes Booth’s famous acting family often graced the city’s stages. In just two years, San Francisco’s population skyrocketed from eight hundred to thirty thousand, making it an “instant city” where tensions between transplanted Northerners and Southerners built as war threatened the nation. Though seemingly isolated, San Franciscans took their part in the conflict. Some extended the Underground Railroad to their city, while others joined the Confederate-aiding Knights of the Golden Circle. Including a directory of local historic sites and streets, author Monika Trobits chronicles the dramatic and volatile antebellum and Civil War history of the City by the Bay. Includes photos

The incomparable Rebecca Solnit, author of more than a dozen acclaimed, prizewinning books of nonfiction, brings the same dazzling writing to the essays in Encyclopedia of Trouble and Spaciousness. As the title suggests, the territory of Solnit’s concerns is vast, and in her signature alchemical style she combines commentary on history, justice, war and peace, and explorations of place, art, and community, all while writing with the lyricism of a poet to achieve incandescence and wisdom. Gathered here are celebrated iconic essays along with little-known pieces that create a powerful survey of the world we live in, from the jungles of the Zapatistas in Mexico to the splendors of the Arctic. This rich collection tours places as diverse as Haiti and Iceland; movements like Occupy Wall Street and the Arab Spring; an original take on the question of who did Henry David Thoreau’s laundry; and a searching look at what the hatred of country music really means. Solnit moves nimbly from Orwell to Elvis, to contemporary urban gardening to 1970s California macramé and punk rock, and on to searing questions about the environment, freedom, family, class, work, and friendship. It’s no wonder she’s been compared in Bookforum to Susan Sontag and Annie Dillard and in the San Francisco Chronicle to Joan Didion. The Encyclopedia of Trouble and Spaciousness proves Rebecca Solnit worthy of the accolades and honors she’s received. Rarely can a reader find such penetrating critiques of our time and its failures leavened with such generous heapings of hope. Solnit looks back to history and the progress of political movements to find an antidote to despair in what many feel as lost causes. In its encyclopedic reach and its generous compassion, Solnit’s collection charts a way through the thickets of our complex social and political worlds. Her essays are a beacon for readers looking for alternative ideas in these imperiled times.
