This book was released on 2016 with total page 181 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a pictorial and historical guide to over 150 Washington State historical markers sponsored or supported by the Washington State Society of the Daughters of the American Revolution (WSSDAR). Each of these markers is a tiny bit of digestible history and this book is intended to be a roadside companion for your exploration of the state. The markers commemorate historic events; buildings and sites; they honor Native Americans, pioneers, heroes, civic leaders, military leaders and other special people in the State of Washington and the US. They honor our country, flag, and people. You can find these most of these markers along public roadsides or in public parks and they are scattered statewide, from north to south and east to west, including 26 of the 39 counties. And the markers have been organized by county and most markers in the collection include at least one photo, the GPS location, history of the marker, and the actual inscription on the marker.

Download or read book Monumental Seattle written by Robert Spalding and published by Washington State University Press. This book was released on 2021-06-22 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beginning with the 1899 installation of a stolen Tlingit totem pole at Pioneer Square and stretching to artist Lou Cella’s Ken Griffey Jr. sculpture erected at Safeco Field in 2017, Seattle offers an impressive abundance of public monuments, statues, busts, and plaques. Whether they evoke curiosity and deeper interaction or elicit only a fleeting glance, the stories behind them are worth preserving. Private donors and civic groups commissioned prominent national sculptors, as well as local artists like James A. Wehn (who sculpted multiple renderings of Chief Seattle) and Alonzo Victor Lewis, who produced a number of bas-reliefs and statues, including one of the city’s most controversial--a World War I soldier known as “The Doughboy.” The resulting creations represent diverse perspectives and celebrate a wide array of cultural heroes, dozens of firsts, the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Exposition, aviation, and military and maritime service. Author Robert Spalding provides the history surrounding these works. Beyond the words chiseled into granite or emblazoned in bronze, he considers the deeper meaning of the heritage markers, exploring how and why people chose to commemorate the past, the selection of sites and artists, and the context of the time period. He also discusses how changing societal values affect public memorials, noting works that are missing or relocated, and how they have been maintained or neglected. An appendix lists the type, year, location, and artist for sixty monuments and statues, and whether each still exists. Another useful appendix offers maritime plaque inscriptions.
