There used to be several islands in the San Francisco Bay that no one has ever seen, and each has its own story: Arch Rock in the Golden Gate with it’s scenic tunnel; Shag Rock figured in a duel and two celebrated murder cases; Anita Rock sank a ferry loaded with orphans, and many more. Some of these islands were built over but most were blasted away in spectacular explosions as hazards to navigation. Local historian and author Brian Crawford will present the histories of these islands and the many vessels that came to grief on them as well as share the massive engineering projects used to remove them. You won’t look at the Bay the same way after hearing and reading Lost Islands of San Francisco Bay.
