110 reviewsHidden San Francisco is a guidebook like no other. Structured around the four major themes of ecology, labor, transit & dissent, Chris Carlsson peels back the layers of San Francisco’s history to reveal a storied past: behind old walls & gleaming glass facades lurk former industries, secret music & poetry venues, forgotten terrorist bombings, & much more. Carlsson delves into the Bay Area’s long prehistory as well, examining the region’s geography & the lives of its inhabitants before the 1849 Gold Rush changed everything, setting in motion the clash between capital & labor that shaped the modern city.
The definitive ‘history from below,’ Hidden San Francisco highlights moments of historic contestation when paths forked & choices fought over by the city’s prior inhabitants opened some doors & closed others. From the perspective of the students & secretaries, longshoremen & waitresses, Hidden San Francisco uncovers dozens of overlooked, forgotten, & flushed histories that pulse through the streets & hills even today, inviting the reader to see themselves in the middle of the ongoing, everyday process of making history . . . together.
