Synopsis Men and Memories of San Francisco, in the "spring of '50." by : Theodore Augustus Barry
Theodore Augustus Barry (1825-1881) and Benjamin Ada Patten (1825-1877) established their credentials as California pioneers by arriving in their adopted state before January 1, 1850. Men and memories of San Francisco (1873) gives later arrivals a detailed picture of the city as it existed a few months before California statehood. They describe the streets and the residences and business that lined each thoroughfare and alley as well as the men and women who owned those homes, boarding-houses, hotels, restaurants, saloons, stores, offices, and shops. They also chronicle the fire of May 1851 which destroyed so many of the structures they describe. While they focus on the city as it was in early 1850, their sketches of its residents extend further, often forming capsule biographies of their subjects.

Synopsis Men and Memories of San Francisco in the Spring of 50 (Classic Reprint) by : Theodore Augustus Barry
Excerpt from Men and Memories of San Francisco in the Spring of 50 Years ago it was no unfrequent thing for old resi dentes, who, in the course of conversation, had arrived at a point of doubt or difference upon the location of some building, or the names of its occupants, their personal appearance, profession, or peculiarities in the Spring of to come to us for information on the mooted point, believing that our long continued residence and peculiar Opportunities for observation, together with unusually good memories, rendered our decisions worthy of consideration. As Time's incessant revolution whirls us on and on, still farther from those days, and looking back upon the long vista of years, the once familiar spots and well known forms and faces fade in the distance. These inquiries increase day by day, and so often have we been correct, that many of our friends have said: Write some of the reminiscences of those old times.

Synopsis Grid meets the hills by : Florence Lipsky
"Comme la plupart des villes américaines, San Francisco s'est développée suivant un système de grille orthogonale, ne tenant pas compte de la topographie particulière (42 collines et une baie). Il en résulte un phénomène peu commun : les rues rectilignes jouent aux montagnes russes car l'outil du colonisateur et les reliefs sont entrés en guerre au mépris d'une rationalité évidente.
