Summary: Beautiful photographs of historic San Francisco .
Comment: J.B. Monaco was an Italian-Swiss photographer working in North Beach, San Francisco's Italian center, around the turn of the century. This book, written by Richard Dillon and documented with Monaco's photographs, gives the reader a true feeling for one of the early Italian American districts on the West Coast. Monaco's photos bring the book to life, each of them like a slice of time from turn of the century San Francisco. His images of the San Francisco earthquake of 1906 are of particular interest, many of which capture images never seen in any photographic collection. The book is a must for anyone intereseted in San Francisco (and particularly North Beach) history, and the early Italian-American experience in the United States.
