At the turn of the century, the city was a study in contrasts, defined as much by the opulence of its nouveau riche society as it was by the opium dens, prostitution and gambling in neighboring Chinatown and the grinding poverty of its Mission District tenements.
“Marta Baldwin (the protagonist) is a practical young woman who has inherited enough money from her father to meet her modest needs and finance her charity, the Pacific Aid Society,” Snider says. “Her mission is to help the poor, in particular, by teaching women how to budget their families’ meager incomes.”
