6. Historic San Francisco, Russian Hill Bookstore

Part history book and part tour guide, Rand Richards' Historic San Francisco is a wonderfully written tribute to San Francisco's varied and interesting past. Packed with maps and vintage photographs, Rand takes you through many of the city's landmarks and lesser known sites, giving a well-written and concise history of the area, as well as tour information, hours of operation, prices, and contact information. This is a highly recommended book for locals and tourists alike. -- Cris Pirvan, bookseller

5. Flour Water Salt Yeast, the Booksmith

This is a lovely book, a thorough, loving architecture of bread: How to do it, what to do with it, how to adjust and develop and refine your bread making techniques. This is a perfect book for beginning bakers, or for someone who is about to be one. -- Amy Stephenson, events coordinator
