Unusual look at a famous disaster
17. Februar 2006
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
The author is a regional historian, musician, and brewer, who has brought together an absorbing collection of stereoscopic photographs of the disaster, and combined them with largely contemporary writings to produce a very attractive coffee-table book. The photographs are generally displayed two ways, in large format as an eye-viewable image, and a smaller stereoscopic version below. The second version is to be viewed through a set of glasses, included with the book, and stereoscopic view brings out an astonishing amount of detail, mightily improving on both the depth and clarity of the flat image. An introductory chapter describes the development of stereoscopy and the roles of the major promoters of the form. The author has brought together an impressive collection of images and commentary. For straight history, readers might prefer The Crack in the Edge of the World, by Simon Winchester but this is an excellent visual companion that enthusiasts either of the disaster or of the medium will want.

Remarkable 3-D Pictures Bring 1906 Earthquake To Life
1. Januar 2006
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
Three important elements effectively come together to make this beautiful book unique:
1. Rare stereo photographs of landmark structures, like City Hall and The Crocker mansion, reproduced to view with 3-D glasses that are included, let you bear witness to the actual devastation.
2. Newspaper accounts at the time and personal recollections let you hear what actually happened. Herbert Hamrol's recently shared reminiscence of when he was just three years old is touching.
3. And lastly, the backstories of universally known figures like Enrico Caruso, and locally recognized officials like the then Commander of the Presideo, General Frederick Funston, and Mayor Eugene Schmitz draw us closer to the feelings and heroic actions of those who survived.
All of us who love San Francisco will cherish this book.

An exceptional pictorial of the 1906 earthquake
22. Dezember 2005
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
I've spent hours looking at the photos in Mr. Burkhart's book. They tell a story no words could ever tell, and cover each page of the book's 220 pages. Wow!! That's a lot of photographs. I was amazed!! I, also, really appreciated the 3-D feature which allowed me to see most of the photos in greater depth. Earthquake Days is a unique and brilliantly assembled book with the added bonus of being interactive. I believe it would appeal to children as much as it would adults.
Mr. Burkhart did a first rate job of compiling the photographs and telling the story of Earthquake Days. It is a must see book!
