Description

Bohemian San Francisco is a book written by Clarence E. Edwords that provides a comprehensive and detailed account of the bohemian lifestyle in San Francisco during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The author takes the reader on a journey through the city's cultural and artistic scene, exploring the lives and works of some of its most prominent figures, including writers, artists, musicians, and actors.The book is divided into several chapters, each of which focuses on a different aspect of the bohemian lifestyle. The author discusses topics such as the city's vibrant theater scene, the rise of the Beat Generation, the influence of the Barbary Coast on the city's culture, and the role of women in the bohemian movement.Throughout the book, Edwords provides vivid descriptions of the city's neighborhoods, landmarks, and cultural institutions, giving readers a sense of what it was like to live in San Francisco during this exciting and transformative period in its history. The author also includes numerous photographs and illustrations that help bring the city and its inhabitants to life.Overall, Bohemian San Francisco is a fascinating and engaging read that offers a unique perspective on the city's rich cultural heritage. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of San Francisco, the bohemian lifestyle, or the arts and culture of the late 19th and early 20th centuries.In O'Farrell street the Delmonico was one of the most famous of the French restaurants until the fire. It was several stories high, and each story contained private rooms. Carriages drove directly into the building from the street and the occupants went by elevator to soundproof rooms above, where they were served by discreet waiters.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
