Book Description
Excerpt from By the Golden Gate or San Francisco: The Queen City of the Pacific Coast, With Scenes and Incidents Characteristic of Its Life This work now offered to the public owes its origin largely to the following circumstance: On the return of the author from California and the city of Mexico, in November, 1901, his friend, the Rev. John N. Marvin, President of the Diocesan Press, asked him to contribute some articles to the Diocese of Albany. From these "sketches" of San Francisco this book has taken form. There are chapters in the volume which have not appeared in print hitherto, and such portions as have been already published have been thoroughly revised. Much of the work has been written from copious notes made in San Francisco, and impressions received there naturally give a local colouring to it in its composition.

Book Description
Irish artist Richal Ryan travels to the tropical island of San Sebastian in the West Indies to meet her pen pal Daniel San Laurant. She thinks she has finally found the man of her dreams, and sparks indeed fly as soon as they meet face-to-face. The two hit it off after only a brief holiday in the sun. Daniel asks her to return to him, and love-struck Richal is happy to oblige. She gives up her job in Dublin and begins a new life with the handsome Daniel. Together, they live in a magnificent oceanfront home, travel the world, and lead a charmed life many would envy. They eventually start a family, but soon after, the cracks in their whirlwind marriage begin to show. Richal realizes too late that she has lost her identity and independence by mistaking Daniels extreme control over her for love. Their relationship becomes so estranged that they are now total strangers with four young children. As Daniel battles to keep his fortune, he uses the kids as pawns to ensure his wealth. From this point on, Richals nightmare battle is only beginning as she struggles to hold on to her beloved children and leave her abusive marriage behind.
