Summary

The year is 1865. A young woman leaves the sophisticated civility of Boston and travels for weeks on an overcrowded steamer to the rough-and-ready Washington Territory and the boomtown of Seattle. The life she finds in this distant but developing outpost fills these pages with touching and proud Seattle Memories.

Edith Sanderson Redfield chronicles life in Seattle during the last part of the nineteenth century as only some-one who has lived it could. Images are vivid and evocative as she describes what we can only imagine the foresight and fortitude of the founding fathers; the skirmishes with the local Indians: the inevitable frontier justice; the devastation of The Great Fire; and the sometimes terrible toll of life at sea. Yet, through it all, the people of Seattle pursue their destiny with determination, carving out for themselves a magnificent city set amongst unparalleled natural beauty.

Seattle Memories ends just as Washington State's oldest and most-respected real estate brokerage is born: Ewing and Clark, Inc. To commemorate Ewing and Clark's 100th
