520    At 5:12 a.m. on the morning of April 18, 1906, San 
       Francisco was struck by one of the worst earthquakes in 
       history, instantly killing hundreds. The ensuing fires 
       that ravaged the city for days were responsible for the 
       deaths of as many as 3,000 more. In all, 522 blocks and 28,
       188 buildings were leveled, and some 200,000 people 
       dislocated.This watershed event in American history has 
       never before been told with the richness of historical 
       detail and insight that our foremost historian of fire, 
       Dennis Smith, brings to it in San Francisco Is Burning. 
       Smith cinematically recounts this terrible tragedy through
       the stories of the people who lived through those terrible
       days-from a valiant naval officer who helped save the 
       city's piers and wharves to Eugene Schmitz, the crooked 
       mayor, to the "debonair scoundrel" Abe Ruef, the most 
       erudite city boss in American history. Throughout, Smith 
       reveals many unknown details about the event, from the 
       city's great vulnerability to fire-due to its corrupt and 
       hasty building practices-to the widespread racism the 
       quake unleashed and the atrocities committed by national 
       guardsmen. Told with verve and a seasoned firefighter's 
       knowledge, San Francisco Is Burning is the gripping and 
       definitive account of one of the greatest disasters of the
       twentieth century.
