Details
Lightly and skillfully she brings the city and its past to life through the toil, the triumphs, the zest for work and fun of its citizens—people like: Ross Cox, "scribbling clerk" of the fur trade era who was lost for two terrifying weeks in the Palouse hills; Father Cataldo of the Jesuits from whose "rock pile" arose Gonzaga University; the hotel-keeper's wife whose party dress froze to the wall just as she was about to show Spokane its first waltz; Jim Glover, "Father of Spokane;" and "Dutch Jake," who ran a gambling resort and crossed swords with Ida Tarbell.
Spokane Story is the colorful history of a colorful city and its people, from the years of its lusty youth to the day when a clergyman sat in the Mayor's chair and a new city charter heralded the end of its days as a frontier town.
