About This Book

A collection of travel essays, sketches, and poems that evoke the landscapes and seaside environs of the San Francisco Bay region. The author describes hikes through canyons and redwood groves, trout fishing in upland streams, rocky headlands and surf, and panoramic views from Mount Tamalpais, alongside vignettes of Chinatown, wharves, and glass-bottom boat excursions. Vivid attention to atmosphere—fog, moonlight, tide and storm—mixes natural history, practical observation, and lyrical impressions of trails, campfires, and coastal life.
