The unique lifestyle the authors lived is unlikely to be repeated in modern America. They grew up in the Wynooche Valley and through anecdotes and stories bring the Olympic Peninsula of the 1950s and 60s vividly to life. Written with zest and humor, the memoir creates a portrait of resilience, hard work, and numerous brushes with fate. | | Staff Training - Montesano library closed | | Montesano Timberland Library | Fri., May. 24 | All Day | | The Montesano Timberland Library will be closed Friday, May 24 for staff training.
