Concise overview of the different styles of Victorians in San Francisco, with most of the book devoted to photos of the houses. I especially liked the section that talked about the exterior paint colors because I'm a color-oriented person, and the colorful exterior of many Victorians was one of the things that drew me to them in the first place. Thanks to this book my walks through the neighborhood just got a lot slower and more interesting.
