This book was released on 1991 with total page 506 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the Pacific Northwest Booksellers Award Bounded on the east by the crest of the Cascade Range and on the west by the lofty east flank of the Olympic Mountains, Puget Sound terrain includes every imaginable topograhic variety. This thoughtful and eloquent natural history of the Puget Sound region begins with a discussion of how the ice ages and vulcanism shaped the land and then examines the natural attributes of the region--flora and fauna, climate, special habitats, life histories of key organisms--as they pertain to the functioning ecosystem. Mankind's effects upon the natural environment are a pervasive theme of the book. Kruckeberg looks at both positive and negative aspects of human interaction with nature in the Puget basin. By probing the interconnectedness of all natural aspects of one region, Kruckeberg illustrates ecological principles at work and gives us a basis for wise decision-making. The Natural History of Puget Sound Country is a comprehensive reference, invaluable for all citizens of the Northwest, as well as for conservationists, biologists, foresters, fisheries and wildlife personnel, urban planners, and environmental consultants everywhere. Lavishly illustrated with over three hundred photographs and drawings, it is much more than a beautiful book. It is a guide to our future.

He built the first church in La Connor, of which he was both the architect and the carpenter. His energies have been given in an almost undivided manner to his church work, and the parish of Our Lady of Good Hope, now one of the strongest in the northwest, is the result of his energy and devotion to the cause of Christianity. He was a pioneer in introducing Catholicism into this city and this portion of the state, and the growth of the church here is largely due to his efforts. THE WEEKLY CAPITAL. Only a few years ago the press of the country was almost wholly divided in support of one or other of the great political parties. And it is a sign of the growing independence of thought and the tendency to look squarely at the real merits of questions that of late years many newspapers of the country have styled themselves "independent," thus marking another stage of progress of public opinion. The only paper of this nature published in Thurston county, Washington, is the Weekly Capital, owned and edited by Mr. B. M. Price at Olympia. The Capital is an eight page, five-column folio, issued every Friday. The date of its first establishment was in 1887, when it came out under the name of the News Transcript, was later succeeded by the Review, and in 1900 it was purchased by Mr. Price and given its present name. The Capital is an organ of progress and under its able editor has much to do with the upbuilding of the interests of the county and state, endeavoring not only to be an index of public opinion but also to mold public opinion into right action. Mr. B. M. Price claims Manchester, England, as the place of his birth, being born there on the 27th of February, 1855. In 1857 his father, Thomas Price, came to America with his four sons, ...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Puget Sound is a complex fjord-estuary system in Washington State that is connected to the Pacific Ocean by the Juan de Fuca Strait and surrounded by several large population centers. The watershed is enormous, covering nearly 43,000 square kilometers with thousands of rivers and streams. Geological forces, volcanos, Ice Ages, and changes in sea levels make the Sound a biologically dynamic and fascinating environment, as well as a productive ecosystem. Human activity has also influenced the Sound. Humans built several major cities, such as Seattle and Tacoma, have dramatically affected the Puget Sound. This book describes the natural history and evolution of Puget Sound over the last 100 million years through the present and into the future. Key Features Summarizes a complex geological, geographical, and ecological history Reviews how the Puget Sound has changed and will likely change in the future Examines the different roles of various drivers of the Sound’s ecosystem function Includes the role of humans—both first people and modern populations.
