Making San Francisco American

cultural frontiers in the urban West, 1846-1906

This book attempts to explain how the racially mixed and roughly egalitarian culture of mining-era SF was gradually molded into something acceptable to “cultured” Americans – both to the nouveau riche of the West who wanted to build a city acceptable to the East, and to those from the East who were flooding into SF. Started as a PhD thesis, and reads like one.
