Synopsis "Gold Mountain, big City: Ken Cathcart's 1947 Illustrated map of san Francisco's Chinatown"

The unique character of San Francisco's Chinatown is revealed in a historical map and fascinating photographs This colorful and celebratory time capsule of San Francisco's Chinatown--the largest Chinese community outside of Asia--shares the stories of the unique businesses, culture, and people encountered by map illustrator Ken Cathcart between 1939 and 1955. Each section of this stylized map, supplemented by Cathcart's never-before-seen black-and-white photographs, is explained in meticulous detail, revealing glimpses of the immigration story universal to America and exploring the struggles, triumphs, and enduring legacy of this vibrant community.
