| 520 | _a"By the Golden Gate; Or, San Francisco, the Queen City of the Pacific Coast" by Joseph Carey is a historical account written in the early 20th century. This work explores the vibrant essence of San Francisco, delving into its rich history, diverse culture, and the momentous events that shaped the city into the iconic place it is today, often emphasizing its significance as a destination for adventurers and explorers drawn by the allure of the West. The opening of the book sets the stage for Carey's detailed observations following his journey to San Francisco in 1901, coinciding with the General Convention of the Church. Initially, he reflects on the preparations for his trip, contemplating various travel routes while sharing anecdotes about people he encounters along the way. His narrative seamlessly transitions from vivid descriptions of picturesque landscapes, such as the Rocky Mountains and Salt Lake City, to his first glimpses of San Francisco, highlighting the sensory experiences of travel mixed with the anticipation of arriving in what he affectionately calls the "Queen City." Throughout this section, Carey conveys not just the physical beauty of the places he visits, but also the profound emotional resonance of finally encountering the storied city by the Golden Gate.
