This is a review for the book A San Francisco Conservative published by David Parker Essays which I was sent a copy of in exchange for this review.
I was sitting at my desk when I opened up A San Francisco Conservative and I began to browse through the book I found myself being drawn in to story. I couldn’t wait to read the first chapter to see what would happen. As I began reading I found more and more things I wanted to share with David and Charlie that the Author had included in the story.
Once my father in law is 100% percent better I can’t wait to share A San Francisco Conservative with David’s parents who love learning and reading about politics. If you haven’t had the time to read A San Francisco Conservative I hope you take the time to purchase a copy not only for you to read but your family.

Wisdom from a Brilliant Member of a ‘Rare and Endangered
Species’ – a “San Francisco Conservative!”
Scholarly Writing from an Entrepreneurial Mind
Educator/Entrepreneur/Musician David Parker Provides
Insight and Historical Context to Today’s Heated Political Debate
“Moderates and Progressives, both, will benefit by reading A San Francisco Conservative, an influential explanation of classical conservativism an understandable explanation of the timeless laws of social, political and economic freedom.”
Judge Quentin Kopp (Ret.)
California State Senator, 1986-1998;
San Francisco Board of Supervisors, 1972-1986
During this turbulent time, the individual and governmental decisions that will be made in the months and years ahead are likely to have a “ripple effect” that is felt for decades to come. In the nick of time, a new book offers a much-needed reminder that the timeless principles of economics are essential to the preservation of American democracy.
Entrepreneur, investor, and lifelong educator David Parker, at age 50, went back to school to gain a deeper understanding of these enduring ideas–and the missteps of nations that deviated from them—to write his playfully-titled new book, A San Francisco Conservative.
Just as Parker’s first book, Income and Wealth, provided readers with a thought-provoking examination of the foundation on which the nation’s freedom rests, his latest book, “a letter to progressives,” also serves as a message of reassurance and a challenge to the conventional political thinking of the day.
About: David Parker
David Parker began his career in education at the age of 24 and served students of San Francisco’s inner-city public elementary schools for 40 years as a music teacher, followed by 10 years as a volunteer. While pursuing his career in education, Parker also became a very successful real estate investor. It was success in business that focused his writing, teaching and career as a professional musician. Parker’s career as a musician is similarly impressive. He spent 20 years as member of the Berkeley Symphony Orchestra and 15 years as leader of the Dave Parker Sextet, which has headlined at San Francisco’s Fillmore Jazz Festival.
As Income and Wealth approached publication, Parker was already hard at work on his next book. His thoughtful essays have been featured in The Economist, The Financial Times and several prestigious law journals. In addition to being an author, entrepreneur and investor, David Parker is also a proud father and grandfather. In his later years, his mother Gertrud Parker – who passed away earlier this year at the age of 96 – served as a powerful inspiration, with her international acclaim an artist as well as a civic leader in San Francisco.
