About the Book

"San Francisco--famous for its cable cars, the Golden Gate Bridge, and its characteristic cool grey fog. Karl the Fog has not always been the fog of San Francisco. He inherited the job from his parents in 2010 and, as a resident of Silicon Valley, of course started a Twitter and Instagram account to document his comings and goings and the beauty of the city he loves, except for when it's sunny. Amassing roughly half a million followers across social platforms, his witty takes on San Francisco paired with beautiful evocative photography have earned him a local and wider celebrity status. In this, Karl's first book, he collects more than 50 scenic selfies along with new entertaining appreciations of the city and an account of his family's history in the Bay Area, lifting his veil of mystery and celebrating San Francisco as only he can"--
