The first edition of Caen's post-World War II collection of stories about San Francisco. The collection describes the city as it was then, with its covenants against Chinese living outside of Chinatown, the former soldiers and sailors trying to hold down jobs and find a place to live, and the drinking culture that has been a constant in the city for over 150 years. An entertaining look at life in San Francisco during the 1940's by reknown columnist Herb Caen reflecting the diverse multicultural character of the city. With chapters like: How to Be a San Franciscan, and Cocktails for Two Thousand, find out why Herb Caen became a Bay Area icon for decades.
