Book Description
"At the dawn of the twentieth century, San Francisco was the economic and cultural center of the West Coast. But on the morning of April 18, 1906, everything changed. A devastating earthquake hit the city, tumbling buildings and igniting infernos. Thousands of people lost their lives, and hundreds of thousands lost their homes. San Francisco was in ruins. Why such a massive earthquake? Why such devastation? And would San Francisco ever recover?"--Provided by publisher.
