A fantastic book! Timothy Egan describes his journeys in the Pacific Northwest through visits to salmon fisheries, redwood forests and the manicured English gardens of Vancouver. Here is a blend of history, anthropology and politics.

I loved his use of adjectives to bring the reader on his journey. Reminds of Charles Dickens. This author brings you into his journey. The narrator was the perfect choice. This is a keeper and I will read it again. I highly recommend it to anyone that wants to know more about the history of the Northwest territory.

Author knows his subject through exhaustive research, both historic and personal experience and interviews. You are there.

Well told, with good description of beautiful scenery, and some clever metaphors.

Great stories, full of history. Overall, the book is terribly depressing, but that isn’t what nearly caused my abandonment. It was the narrator’s frequent mispronunciation of PNW place names! It was distracting to the point that I found myself loudly correcting his errors in the second half of the book. Most were place names, Alki, Puyallup, etc., but GEOduck, repeatedly, took the cake. A little homework could have made this a much more satisfying listen.

A very informative and interesting look at the history of various aspects of the Pacific NW. A lot having to do with nature and the Native American culture of the area.

Wonderful

Excellent listen, great stories of a time past, Historically correct, saddened by the use and abuse of a once Natural Ecosystem , that was cherished and cultivated by the Original keepers of the land.

Great Narriatiom

It is distracting, especially for a book about a specific region, to have the reader mispronounce common regional areas.

What is this place? What makes it what it is? How did it come to be? Who made it this way? Why? What is it at its best? At its worst? Where is it headed? What are its tall tales? What forces have shaped it? What is its nature?

Timothy Egan’s concise and lively re-telling of the rapacious history of the Pacific Northwest is brought to life by one of the best Audible readers, Grover Gardner.

Great Story; Fabulous Reader

I am from the NW and was extremely interested in this book. I have two corrections for the narrator. Couer’d Alene is pronounced with a long A not an e. The other is that geoduck is pronounced gooey duck. These are minor, I realize but substantial if raised here!

Excellent book
