More about the book

The narrative explores the profound transformation of San Francisco following the Pearl Harbor attack on December 7, 1941. Once vibrant with post-exposition excitement, the city quickly adapted to its new role as a key military deployment center during World War II. The influx of servicemen and women altered the city's landscape, marked by the presence of warships in the bay and the establishment of defensive gun emplacements. This period of organized chaos reshaped San Francisco's identity, reflecting the broader impacts of the war on urban life.
