In all of North America there is no more perfect intersection of
climate, culture, and colorful history than San Francisco - the
culmination of Manifest Destiny, the Golden Gate to the Pacific
Ocean, and the treasure house of the wealth of the great California
Gold Rush. Purged of her wild, anarchic past by a devastating
earthquake and fire at the beginning of the twentieth century, San
Francisco has emerged as the most cosmopolitan city on the West
Coast. San Francisco is deceptively ancient; its history shrouded
in a fog of false domesticity. The Bay Area has known many masters,
each leaving a distinctive mark upon the land. As San Francisco
blossoms it attracts fugitives and practitioners of unorthodox
faiths from across the world. Tales of the region assume mythic
proportions as it becomes the most ethnically diverse, and most
lawless, place in America. SECRETS OF SAN FRANCISCO provides
excellent background for a CALL OF CTHULHU campaign set in the Bay
Area of the 1920s. It includes urban geography, civic history and
research venues, and mythos lore. Many period photographs are
provided and dozens of historical figures are introduced, including
several who collaborated and corresponded with Lovecraft. Here are
provided descriptions of where San Franciscan's are sent when they
break the law, go insane, or pass-beyond. Here are the sights,
sounds, and secrets of this place that makes it a unique city."
