Title: Classic First-Rate Illustrated History --A Must Have
Review: This is a classic, breezy and engaging first-rate history that ranks as a "must-have" for cable car enthusiasts, but should absolutely not be overlooked by anyone exploring the history of San Francisco and it's unique character.This is a handsome, oversize book rich with historic photos and illustrations, including endpapers with detailed colored drawings of various models of cable cars that were assigned to specific routes of the city.The accompanying text is serious history written in an engaging style that weaves the technical details of cable car history with the unique charm of San Francisco, its sometimes eccentric and often visionary citizenry, and the neighborhoods and businesses the cable cars served.Undoubtedly more could be written about cable cars, but it's unlikely that any book could more delightfully capture the wonderful atmosphere of San Francisco's cable car world when it was at its bell-clanging, rail-chattering peak.
