Dead Pioneers Come to Life

The author does a wonderful job of bringing early Seattle history to life. By describing the characters that were important in the founding of Seattle one gains a new respect for what it is that makes Seattle unique. The directions given for locating the graves of famous Seattle pioneers are very helpful, because although most of these pioneers are located in the same cemetery, Lake View is not your typical pioneer cemetery.
