San Francisco is a major seaport, which is considered to be a gateway to The Golden State, California. A very interesting portrait of early California can be drawn from reading a book titled "Two Years before the Mast" by Richard Henry Dana, Jr. Dana Point, California was subsequently named in his honor. Pictures do not do the place justice.
