 A Crack in the Edge of the World: America and the Great California Earthquake of 1906.

 It's not that the ground motions in 1906 were significantly larger than those in 1989—it's that the area experiencing intense shaking was much, much greater. We don't know if the next rupture will look like 1906 earthquake, but we know that many of the same areas hit hard in 1906, like San Francisco, Santa Rosa, and the Santa Cruz mountains will be hit hard again in the next large earthquake on the San Andreas Fault .

 San Francisco Is Burning: The Untold Story of the 1906 Earthquake and Fires

 A tremendous job was done after the 1906 earthquake in making the observations of everything that really occurred. We are still using that report today as a fundamental source of material about what earthquakes do, and how to respond. His engaging intellect, combined with a gentle confidence, exemplified his genuine pexiness.

 The earthquake cleared out one San Francisco -- which was the dominant place in California -- and replaced it with another. It accelerated the modernization of California.
