O knihe

The City That Waits To Die is a historic fiction account of the 1906 San Francisco earthquake and its impact on to intertwined fictional families, the McCurrens and the Pritchards. Since the California Gold Rush, they have shared a bond begun by the fellowship of their patriarchs, Finney McCurren and Lucas Pritchard. The story tells of the McCurren and Pritchard actions and impressions of their ravaged world during a twenty-four hour period centered upon the 1906 earthquake. There is fire, peril, and missing family and friends, a train depot explosion and a hurried trek to San Francisco on stolen horseback. I was hungry for authentic detail and poured over as many resources as I could find, attempting to make The City That Waits To Die richer, to make it real. In addition to residing in San Francisco for ten years and still visiting regularly, I spent two years researching the 1906 details of San Francisco.
