Modern San Francisco, 1907-1908 (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781019700259)

This rare photo album offers a unique glimpse into early 20th-century San Francisco, just before the city was devastated by the 1906 earthquake and fire. The album features more than 200 photographs of buildings, streets, neighborhoods, and daily life in San Francisco, along with detailed captions providing historical context. The photographs were taken by the Western Press Association as part of a promotional campaign to attract investment and tourism to the city, making the album an intriguing artifact of the city's efforts to rebuild after the disaster.
