The critically acclaimed, San Francisco Chronicle bestseller—a gripping story of the strife and tragedy that led to San Francisco’s ultimate rebirth and triumph.

Salon founder David Talbot chronicles the cultural history of San Francisco and from the late 1960s to the early 1980s when figures such as Harvey Milk, Janis Joplin, Jim Jones, and Bill Walsh helped usher from backwater city to thriving metropolis.

A good time capsule of San Francisco, but mediocre writing

As someone who lives in and loves San Francisco, this book was a detailed tour through it's "summer of love" eras. But without that interest the writing likely wouldn't have kept me compelled. I much preferred 'Heart of the City' - a similar kinda book about Philly.
