Michael Gard writes good, comprehensive, clever, and very helpful short books with maps showing areas in various cities that are not safe, areas where crime prevails, areas that should be avoided. This book is about San Francisco. His information is based on extensive research. He writes with the assumption that the reader has no prior knowledge about crime in these cities. He identifies both the dangerous and the near dangerous areas, both should be avoided. He includes pages of safety advice in his books, including how to behave on streets and hotels, what to wear, what to do if you suspect that you are followed, and how to act if you are attacked.
