    Gant, Metro Silicon Valley WINNER OF FOUR MAJOR BOOK AWARDS: The 2006 Benjamin Franklin Award in History The 2006 Independent Publisher Book Award in History The Best Books 2006 Book Award in U.S. History The Best Books 2006 Book Award in Photography (Techniques) Minutes after the 1906 San Francisco quake, photographers were on the scene, documenting California's greatest natural disaster. A few had special 3-D cameras, enabling them to record the events of that fateful April in a particularly vivid and affecting medium. Their "stereo views" of the catastrophe, viewed in 3-D through a "stereoscope," were the way in which many vicariously experienced the quake and its aftermath, from the relative comfort of their own unshaken parlors. In the award-winning new book, Earthquake Days, the story of 1906 San Francisco is told through these rare, original 3-D images---magnificently reproduced along with firsthand accounts, vintage newspapers, lithographs, and maps. Most of the stereo views in Earthquake Days are presented both as 3-D photos AND as large, 2-D photos. This huge, full-color book includes a free 3-D viewer and an illustrated history of this remarkable photographic genre.
