Brand new, gift quality, crisp and unread! First quality, in-stock and ready to go! Illustrated hardcover without dust jacket as issued. Product Description: Why is Berkeley famous worldwide? Because of its inventiveness, its liberal attitudes, and its artists and writers.

From the Back Cover: The lively history of the all-American city that invented listener-sponsored radio, California cui-sine, the lie detector, the atom bomb, the wet suit, the hot tub, and yuppies; that pioneered independent living for disabled people, school integration, free speech, women's rights, the preservation of urban wild lands, modern-day crime fighting, and Prohibition; that commercialized LSD; that welcomed artists, dancers, poets, preachers, prophets, and homeless people; that supported both communists and socialists; that went from "the Athens of the Pacific" to the "People's Republic" . . .
