〝Duffy Jennings wrote more than 500 stories for the San Francisco Chronicle, but he may have saved the best one — his own — for last. Written with admirable skill and moral clarity, his memoir reveals what it was like to cover a city gripped by the Zodiac and Zebra killings, Jonestown, the Moscone-Milk assassinations, and the Dan White trial. But this isn’t only a sharp, vivid snapshot of a city in crisis. It’s also a family saga that defies stereotypes at every turn.”

〝As a former writer and editor at Rolling Stone, and a former colleague of Duffy Jennings at the SF Chronicle, I write to praise 5-Henry-7, the story of the fabled Frank Falzon. We are fortunate to have had him in the police department — and in the city — during those tumultuous times. Duffy Jennings as his co-writer did a great job reflecting Frank’s personality, his voice, his humility, his character, and his passions.”

〝The End of the Golden Gate’s 25 essays are filled with emotional, sincere thoughts on San Francisco. The collection’s depictions of the city and its people often are beautiful, and its anecdotes illuminating.”
