Product Description : Perhaps the most significant years in the history of San Francisco were those that preceded and followed the devastating earthquake of 1906. I really do not know whether or not to endorse the suggestion made by some that the catastrophe was actually a blessing in disguise. The more philosophical may ponder over the question of whether San Francisco would really have evolved into the fascinating city that it is today, had it not been for the earthquake. The films, photographs and text presented in this historic 2-CD set will be a boon to anybody examining such implications. Marked by clarity and stunning artistic insight, the films and photographs present a moving account of the aftermath of the quake. By contrast, you have some delightful clips of the City? famous Market Street and other equally memorable landmarks just prior to the disaster. And then again you are presented with pictures that portray the rebuilding of the city. One aspect that certainly would not escape the attention of even the most casual browser is the resilience of San Franciscans that is visible in almost every frame. In many ways, then, this is a tribute to this amazing quality that characterizes the great city even today. This set of CDs is certain to delight all those who are in love with Frisco and her undeniable charms. It will also thrill history buffs with its first hand account of the city?s most telling event. In addition, it is a graphic reminder of nature?s immense destructive power. Above all, it is a fabulous record of the history of one of America?s most alluring cities. Grab your copy today.
