This special edition of 'Bohemian San Francisco' was written by Clarence E. Edwords and and first published in 1914. This old book is a treasure of a find - it features Art Nouveau era San Francisco, a time of decadence, Libertine lifestyles, and 'do what thou wilt' philosophies. This was half a century before the California hippies who think they invented it! The city thrived on its art scene, its music and theater, its decadent dining establishments. It was a melting pot of the exotic, the very rich, and the very poor-but-talented who entertained the elites. This book features reviews of the city's restaurants of the day with recipes from the eateries themselves, and even includes a menu plan for the perfect Bohemian dinner. This century old recipe book is an essential addition to the kitchen of both the novice home cook and seasoned chef alike with recipes for every-day meals and special occasions too, and for anybody with a passion for the history of San Francisco.
