Cable Car Days in San Francisco
$18.18
Edgar M. Kahn
Book
For more than a half-century the cable cars of San Francisco have been one fo the city's most characteristic features. Here, where this form of transportation originated, it still possesses a distinctive charm which no San Franciscan or visitor ever completely forgets, no matter how far he may foam from the city of the hisll beside the Golden Gate. This is an informal narrative. Through its pages march many notable characters of the city's eventful past, and many a long-forgotten anecdote with all its variety and flavor has here been retold. Time has continued to take its toll of the cable cars since the first editio f this book was published four years ago. It is well therefore to have the story brought up to date. In this new edition Mr. Kahn has added new illustrations, rewritten entirely the last chapter on the present status of the cable cars, and has added a more complete account of the Market /Street Cable Railway Company and the Sutter Street Calbe Railroad Company. This is a reproduction edition from a scanned copy of the original edition. Please view the preview before purchase.
