Synopsis
Beloved Pulitzer Prize-winning columnist and friend to an entire city, Herb Caen knew San Francisco like no one else. His wise and witty writing on Baghdad-by-the-Bay celebrated all that was weird, wonderful, and uniquely San Francisco. By popular demand, this best-selling celebration of Caen's life and times is now available in paperback. Illustrated with scores of archival photographs, this collection gathers the most memorable passages, best anecdotes, and zippiest one-liners from Caen's sixty-year career, selected by his lifelong friend Barnaby Conrad. "The World of Herb Caen" is a loving tribute to the master of three-dot journalism and the city he so vividly chronicled.
