Synopsis
The Coast Miwok and the early friars of Mission Dolores chose San Rafael both for its good weather and running streams, and the mission was named after the Archangel Raphael, the patron saint of bodily healing. When looking for a country estate, many wealthy San Franciscans sought the clean air and ideal weather here to escape the city's damp fog. San Rafael grew fast thereafter--it was the first city in Marin County to incorporate, the first to build a railroad, and the first to build a luxury hotel. San Rafael is the seat of county government, the center of commerce, and a cosmopolitan community in a natural setting. The dusty village of long ago was refined by fine schools and churches, the coming of the library, and by the ambitious efforts of the San Rafael Improvement Club. These early efforts made this a charming place to live, with Victorian homes, sylvan streets, and historic buildings in the business district. The pioneers would be pleased with the state of today's San Rafael.

About the Author
Jocelyn Moss, a longtime research librarian at the Marin History Museum and the Marin County Free Library, and Judy Coy, chairperson of the San Anselmo Historical Commission, have teamed up to tell the story of San Rafael up to the coming of the Golden Gate Bridge. Drawing from the rich photographic collection of the Marin History Museum, the authors depict the city's early residents at home, work, and play.
