I thoroughly enjoyed this book and learned a tremendous amount about San Francisco in that period of time. I found myself incredibly inspired by much of what I read, and was able to fill some important gaps in my own political understanding of San Francisco. Each of topics in this collection of essays was of great interest to me, but I found the quality to vary a great deal. Some were wonderfully written and a few really needed some editorial assistance. I also would have appreciated a more overarching introduction or conclusion that providing analytical glue between the contributions and that referenced what was going on in those geographic and cultural/social areas of San Francisco not covered by the contributed pieces.

A collection of essays spans the tumultuous decade from 1968, the year of the San Francisco State University strike, to 1978 and the twin traumas of the Jonestown massacre and the assassinations of mayor George Moscone and supervisor Harvey Milk. This volume provides a broad look at the diverse ways these ten years shook the city of San Francisco and shaped the world we live in today. From community gardening to environmental justice, gay rights and other identity-based social movements, anti-gentrification efforts, neighborhood arts programs, and more, many of the initiatives whose origins are described here have taken root and spread far beyond San Francisco.
