Description
Anniversaries often stimulate both reflection on the past and speculation about the future. On the occasion of Washington's hundredth anniversary of statehood, this book does both, providing a colorful, comprehensive, and readable account of the beginnings and potential of the state, and of the people who made it what it is today. For those familiar with Washington's history, it offers a nostalgic yet thought-provoking study, and for newcomers, a compelling introduction to the rich heritage and exciting opportunities for the future of this unique state.
