Tradition and Change on Seattle's First Hill: Profanity, Propriety, Pills, and Preservation
December 4, 2014 |
Historic Seattle debuts its 40th Anniversary project, a beautifully illustrated history of Seattle’s First Hill. Program Director and General Editor Lawrence Kreisman will explain how the book came to be. Paul Dorpat, recipient of Historic Seattle’s 2012 Living Landmark Award, and author of the introduction, shares his picks from hundreds of photographic images that showcase First Hill over the past 150 years.
Chapter authors Lawrence Kreisman, Dotty DeCoster, Jacqueline Williams, Dennis Andersen, Luci J. Baker Johnson, and Brooke Best will be on hand to field questions and sign your copy. Each chapter explores and reveals the essential nature of a different historical, cultural, or social dimension of First Hill. The book is a marvelous starting point for urban understanding and exploration.
