San Francisco Earthquake of 1906

In 1906, San Francisco endured one of the most devastating earthquakes to strike the United States. Within a matter of seconds, the city was thrown into chaos as the earth split open and buildings toppled over. As the dust settled, people quickly realized that the nightmare was not over. Massive fires had developed throughout San Francisco. The Army, police, and firefighters used creative strategies to put out the raging fires that were ravaging the city. The heroics of these people were all that kept San Francisco from burning to the ground.Nobleman, Marc Tyler is the author of 'San Francisco Earthquake of 1906 ', published 2007 under ISBN 9780756524609 and ISBN 0756524601.
