San Francisco Giants: 50 Years: 50 Years

4 reviews

Insight Editions, 2008

A "Must Have" for any SF Giants or Baseball fan!
I just received this book as a gift, and I could not put it down. I've been a Giants fan since 1968. My favorite memories include The Say Hey kid Willie Mays, Juan Marichal's high leg kick, Willie McCovey stretching at 1st base and hitting monster HR's, Tito Fuentes bat flip at home plate, etc. This book captures all of those moments and a whole lot more. There are rarely seen photo's(over a ...

Better than a map!
I love DK books and this one is no exeption! It was everything I expected from DK and more. I bought this book for a trip to San Diego that my husband and I recently took. This book was a lifesaver! The maps in the book were clear and easy to follow, the information on different sites was great; we carried this book with us in the camera bag and refered to it often. The maps were clear enough ...

Lonely Planet, 2008

Detailed maps and great writing makes this one the best!
My family and friends gave me over a dozen current San Francisco guidebooks before I moved there a few months ago. Out of all of them (Fodors, Rough Guide, Frommer, Let's Go, DK, etc) this Lonely Planet guide is my favorite. Not only is it the most up to date (the other guides had listings for businesses and restaurants that are no longer around) it is by far the most useful with easy to use, ...

Very Nice Book
This is a very nice book on the homes of San Miguel. I'd recommend to anyone who loves Spanish, or for that matter, any kind of old, rustic design.

The Bridge of San Luis Rey
After having read The Bridge Of San Luis Rey one can easily understand why it has never been out of print since 1927. The characters are unforgetable and their story so very moving. A story I will want to read again and again. Bob Hislop

Gotta read this one before landing San Francisco!!
I found this book more useful than any other guide book for San Francisco. I was very much enjoyed what they recommend in the book especially road trip. They give real detail and recommendation for restaurant and shopping which I found very accurate.

This is San Francisco
This is a great way to introduce little people to the history of various cities. I got this one for my niece so she could learn about where her auntie lives. She likes it so much I may get ger other cities to read.

I have just returned from my sixth trip to San Francisco and used this particular guide for the last three. The detailed pictures helped me find new treasures, the info on transportation has saved me the cost of the guide many times over. I've used this to locate both child friendly activites and also intriguing adult adventures - different trips. This book is very well organized, beautifully ...

Stairway Walks in San Francisco

Adah Bakalinsky, Marian Gregoire

Wilderness Press, 2006

A Great Way to Fall in Love With San Francisco
Adah's book is a great collection of walks all over the city. As the name implies, all the walks focus on the stairways for which San Francisco is so well known. This has two implications: one is that these walks will wear you out; the second is that, on sunny days, you get incredible views from the tops of all the stairways Adah has you climb. For locals, the 27 walks cover the entire town ...

Not for Tourists, 2007

For locals and frequent visitors
My husband is originally from San Francisco, so we visit frequently. We like to try new areas and return to favorites. This spring we wanted to make use of the public transportation system, so we purchased this book. I know that we will use this for many more visits--both in the planning and during the visit!

Using SANs and NAS

W. Curtis Preston

O'Reilly Media, Inc., 2002

Great for folks new to this area of IT
This book gives great description of SANS and NAS. In addition, a clear comparison of SANS and NAS technologies is given which is helpful in deciding what is right for your own organization. This book is not exhaustive on the subjects, but do point the reader in the right direction. I thought the time spent on the topic of backups was especially nice.

Streetwise San Diego Map
I needed a city street map of San Diego for an upcoming visit for a wedding and a vacation, but couldn't obtain one at my local AAA office. I've used these Streetwise city maps before both in Washington D.C. and in Seattle, and it was very convenient to have at hand on both occasions. They are easy to manipulate, unlike paper maps, and can be carried around with no trouble. I received this ...

Frommers, 2007

Good for orienting to San Diego
I've been an avid fan of Frommer's books from all the European and Stateside traveling I do with my family; however, I was disappointed in this San Diego version. Mainly with the "Where to Eat" sections. Luckily, on my trip, I was able to have some locals make recommendations and found some fantastic restaurants (particularly in the Gaslamp District). We also found a great Dueling Piano Bar. ...

After the loss of blind faith: firs step
This is one of the most thought-provoking novels I've ever read. The author presents us with a character who one day discovers he can't believe in god any longer, and thus finds almost everything in his life has lost meaning... His desperation is deepened because he is priest to his village, and is convinced that the loss of religious faith can only bring bad things to people's lives. Thus, he ...
