Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Life at Puget Sound is a travelogue written by Caroline C. Leighton, chronicling her experiences and observations during her time in the Pacific Northwest region of the United States between 1865 and 1881. The book is divided into chapters, each of which focuses on a different aspect of life in the region, including its natural beauty, its indigenous people, its towns and cities, and its economy. Leighton provides detailed descriptions of the landscape, flora and fauna, and the various communities she visited, including Washington Territory, British Columbia, Oregon, and California. She also writes about her encounters with notable figures of the time, such as Chief Seattle and Susan B. Anthony. Through her writing, Leighton paints a vivid picture of the region and its people during a time of significant political, social, and economic change. The book is a valuable historical document, offering insights into the early years of settlement in the Pacific Northwest and the experiences of those who lived there.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
