The Prophet of San Francisco is a novel written by Louis Freeland Post and published in 1904. The story is set in San Francisco during the early 1900s and revolves around the life of a young man named David Starr Jordan. Jordan is a brilliant scientist and educator who becomes disillusioned with the world and decides to leave his prestigious position at Stanford University to become a prophet. Jordan believes that he has been called by God to spread a message of peace and love to the people of San Francisco. He begins preaching on street corners and soon gains a following of devoted followers who believe in his message. However, Jordan’s unconventional methods and beliefs soon attract the attention of the authorities who view him as a threat to the established order.As Jordan’s popularity grows, he becomes embroiled in a series of conflicts with the city’s political and religious leaders. He is eventually arrested and put on trial for his beliefs, leading to a dramatic conclusion that challenges the reader to question their own beliefs about faith, freedom, and the role of religion in society.The Prophet of San Francisco is a thought-provoking novel that explores themes of spirituality, social justice, and the search for meaning in a rapidly changing world. It is a timeless work that continues to resonate with readers today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
