Description: Abandoned San DiegoBy PJessica D. Johnson Paperback: 96 Pages — Publisher: America Through Time (2019) In 1880, San Diego was a sleepy, dusty, western border town of about 2,500 souls. Today, it is a modern, world-class city with a greater metropolitan area population of more than three million residents (five million if the Mexican border city of Tijuana is included), a diverse economy, and tourist attractions that draw an estimated thirty-five million visitors each year. Its history was written by a fascinating group of friars, explorers, miners, entrepreneurs, educators, and inventors. In a thriving modern city like San Diego, little stays the same for long. Today's skyline would be virtually unrecognizable to a time traveler from the 1950s, but when you explore a little, you find fascinating vestiges of the San Diego of our great grandparents tucked away. Abandoned San Diego is a trip back in time, visiting nineteen sites that are in some level of deterioration, but still offer a glimpse into a different period in San Diego's past. Along the way, we will take a richly illustrated journey to old mines, fading towns, burned out ruins, and pioneer cemeteries, among other fascinating places. Please note: All books are shipped USPS Media Mail within the U.S.A. Other forms of postage are prohibitively expensive and will be used only at buyer's request. Shipment to countries outside the U.S.A. will be sent First Class International Mail unless the package weighs more than 4 lbs. which will require a higher cost form of shipment. Again, other forms of international postage will only be used at the buyer's request because of high cost. Condition: BRAND NEW. Payment: Credit, Debit, and gift cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay, PayPal, and PayPal Credit. If you are bidding on multiple items and/or need more than 7 days to complete payment, please be sure to contact me. I gladly combine shipments of two or more items. Combined shipping is best facilitated by contacting me before payment. If an item remains unpaid for 7 days, I begin the Unpaid Item process with eBay to recover my eBay fees, will relist the item, and an unpaid item ding will be recorded on the non-paying bidder's/buyer's Ebay account. Shipping: If an Ebay Store listing or auction features free shipping, there is no shipping cost to the buyer. Otherwise, Buyer pays shipping. Please Note: Sellers are not responsible for service transit time. This information is provided by the carrier (i.e., US Postal Service) and excludes weekends and holidays. Carrier's transit times can vary considerably during peak periods. Therefore, I make no guarantees about transit times (despite Ebay's promises), but I will put your package into the carrier's system in one business day. Please note: I do not ship on Saturdays or Sundays, as my local post office is closed on weekends. Items purchased after 12:00 p.m. on Friday, on Saturday, or on Sunday will be shipped the following Monday. Feedback: I leave positive feedback for all of my customers who pay on time and leave me positive feedback. As soon as I receive your feedback, I will leave feedback for you.
