- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Fog is my favorite weather. On the page opposite the title page, there are simply 16 paint marks with the caption "sample of sf skies" and 1 is blue, 1 is pink, 1 is black, and 13 are varying shades of gray. Ha! It’s my favorite page in the book, but much of it is good. I really like the art in this art heavy book, and the segments and people of San Francisco covered are interesting. Great idea!
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5I like the way the book author sees and hears here. I have been to The City and I will come back.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Lovely recollection of SFO. The illustrations are cheeky, accurate and bring out the various aspects of the city.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5graphic nonfiction - sketches and stories collected in SF
A quick read--includes a few pages about the SF main library, and a couple pages about the bison. I loved the individual portraits and the humanity preserved therein.
