colleagues.

from the prehistoric period up to the early 20th century. Complete
with biographies on the peace-making missionary Father Pierre Jean
De Smet and the influential "father of Oregon" Dr. John McLoughlin,
this collection provides insight into everyday challenges these
notable figures encountered in their struggles to create new
communities. The Shelf2Life History of the Pacific Northwest
Collection allows readers the opportunity to take an expedition
down meandering rivers and past towering evergreens to discover a
region with a rich cultural and natural history unlike any other.
