It has been said of San Francisco that it is not a city, but a spirit, the indomitable spirit of '49 plus the best qualities of a dozen races added since. Recovering from the disastrous fire of 1906, the city has been rebuilt from its ashes - a great and glorious city of sky-scraping business blocks and palatial homes.
