Fracchia, Charles A. City by the Bay : A History of Modern San Francisco 1945 - Present
Encinitas, California, USA Heritage Media Corporation 1997 1-886483-21-3 / 9781886483217 First Edition Hard Cover Near Fine Very Good LeRoy Neiman, Front Cover art and Endpapers
Blue cloth on boards. Jacket has minor edge and corner wear, tiny tear at the top of the front panel. Now in clear cover. "The first general and comprehensive history of modern San Francisco, chronicling the past half century from the end of World War Two to the end of the twentieth century. The second half of the twentieth century saw the city change from the quiet postwar urban center of the Truman and Eisenhower era to the tumult of hippies, war protestors, urban renewal, and political slayings of the 1960s and 1970s, from a conservative political complexion in the 1940s and 1950s to becoming one of the most radically liberal cities by the end of the 1990s. San Francisco's demographic composition had also altered radically: new minorities had replaced the traditional German, Irish, Italian and German Jewish communities, the city had become the country's gay mecca, and thousands of young single men and women had chosen to live there. Fracchia chronicles this urban transformation, he tells the reader about the almost forgotten beatniks, the jazz renaissance of the 1940s and 1950s, along with a cultural and entertainment history of the City since the end of World War Two.".
