Product Description
From the Publisher San Francisco: A Photographic Tour is a visual tribute to San Francisco's remarkable features. The beauty of the natural and architectural sights is a large part of what makes this metropolis so unique. Its unusual topography of rollercoaster hills allows breathtaking views of the Pacific Ocean, and its numerous lush parks make it one of the most verdant cities of its size in the world. Inside the pages of this book, readers are treated to photographs of the city's most treasured landmarks, including: the cable cars, the charming Victorian houses, and the Golden Gate Bridge, as well as the Transamerica Corporation building (the pyramidal tower that is a trademark of San Francisco's skyline). Also featured are the famed neighborhoods: the elite Nob Hill; kooky and eccentric Haight-Ashbury, epicenter of the 1960s counterculture; and the city's famed Chinatown - the world's largest Chinese community outside Asia - with its narrow alleys, curio shops, and restaurants and dim sum parlors. These and many more points of interest await the reader. With dazzling photos by Carol M. Highsmith and warm text by Ted Landphair, San Francisco: A Photographic Tour pays a loving tribute to one of the most picturesque and evocative cities in the world.
