A Tribute To The Eternally Cool Pacific Northwest!

TRUE!! This is about our wonderful inventors of the Pacific Northwest--(I'm not tralking about John Keyster, Pat Cashman and the cast of the late, thoroughly lamented, locally-produced "Almost Live" comedy show..) But I feel that this book is also about our state of being as a region as of 1991---THE CENTER OF THE UNIVERSE (as Fremont still so boldly proclaims!) Microsoft and the the never accepted geeks invaded after the heroin-laced grunge era here in Seattle faded in the 90's. But this book still instills something of the new spirit of inventiveness that derives out of the old, which is leading right now to a new era of creation! Profusely filled with pictures and drawings (so that you don't have so much to read), this book will give you a uniquely Northwest USA perspective on inventiveness and creativity!!!
