Scenes from the Bay
: ""Bay Curious" (2023) is a super fun book about Bay Area history. It's based on the KQED podcast but has stories not in the show. Its short chapters on diverse topics make it ideal on-the-go (like on my Marin County staycation this weekend). Ghost ships, Charlie Chaplin, Drawbridge, and more... neat"
