It has a comprehensive description of almost every area of California. An alternate book to consider is something like the Frommer guide that is about 700 pages. I prefer this book. Both have excellent maps and guides including street maps of San Francisco. They give lots of local information.
But many guides including the Frommer guide are a disappointment because they have almost no photographs. A picture is worth a 1000 words. So if you are buying just one book, then buy this book.
The photos are in bright stunning color and leap from the pages. There are history time lines, references to historical and political development, architecture, museums, surfing, culture, restaurants, places to stay. Very complete. Just a great book.
Highly recommend and makes for a good souvenir.

I went to San Francisco, and places as far as 3 hours driving to north, and 4 hours driving to south. For San Francisco part, this book even included different architecture style, which greatly enhanced my experience. As for others, most of the places they describe, they include pictures also. This helps me to know what to expect.
Though I don't like it to be so heavy, it's my favorite among my collection.
... proper attention to Earthly needs of the poor, the depressed and the
downtrodden, would naturally evolve from dynamic, articulate, spirited
awareness of the great goals for Man and the society he conspired to erect.
-- David Baker, paraphrasing Harold Urey, in
"The History of Manned Space Flight"
"It's easier said than done."
... and if you don't believe it, try proving that it's easier done than
said, and you'll see that "it's easier said that `it's easier done than
said' than it is done", which really proves that "it's easier said than
done".
