This is San Francisco (1962)
City by the Golden Gate, Queen of the West, with only one drawback - "'tis hard to leave" M. Sasek echoes Kipling with more views than the 42 hills. The bridge across the bay; Golden Gate Park with 1,000,000 trees; Stow Lake and koala bears; Chinatown's Grant Avenue; Peking ducks and pagoda phone booths; Union Square, Presidio, Alcatraz, City Hall and Fisherman's Wharf.
Foggy day, bright blue sky - M. Sasek paints at cable-car
slant all the famous landmarks. Pink, blue, gold horizons, a city most charming,
a city most loved - This is San Francisco! - cover notes.
