Earthquake Exodus, 1906
by Richard Schwartz
Earthquake Exodus, 1906 unveils a series of events, monumental in their day, but largely forgotten within a generation. Historian Richard Schwartz has plumbed the depths of the impact of the San Francisco earthquake within the framework of the influx of refugees to Berkeley and the ten-week relief effort that followed, offering up the singularly human details and subtleties of that period like a feast.
RICHARD SCHWARTZ is a California historian and author of Berkeley 1900, Daily Fife at the Turn of the Century and Tlie Circle of Stones, An Investigation of the Circle of Stones in Stampede Valley, Sierra County, California.
