Question:
A Special Offer for Ed
Ricketts, John Steinbeck
Cannery Row, "Western Flyer" and
Pacific Northwest history
fans:
1) If you are not yet aware
of the paradigm-changing research activity
on Washington State's Hood Canal underway by The
History Company
to expand and celebrate a whole range of new and
little known events
that are heralding a new historical horizon of shared
history between
Monterey and Cannery Row (CA) and
the maritime Pacific Northwest,
you are invited to observe, appreciate, and celebrate
your participation
in joining the rare and exciting historical
accomplishment underway
from Gig Harbor, Washington.
2) Revolutionary marine
biologist Edward F. Ricketts, John Steinbeck's
closest friend, mentor, and "Doc" in Steinbeck's 1945
classic"Cannery Row"
—and a half-dozen major characters in his other literary
works—introduced
Ecology with his 1939 "Between Pacific Tides"—a
handbook to shorelines
of the Pacific Coast and one of the most successful
books ever published
by Stanford University Press. Much of its research
and the formulation
of his introduction of Ecology was the result of
his 1930s trips to the
maritime Pacific Northwest. Many spring-summers of
the 1930s Ed operated
based from Hoodsport, Washington, from a rental cabin
site now
identified on
the spectacularly scenic Hood Canal—a thousand miles
from Cannery Row!
3) At this time, there
is only one place to get a comprehensive overview
of this sea-change in West Coast history, science,
and literature: the three
books offered by The History Company presented here
by Cannery Row
historian Michael Hemp and Hood Canal historian,
Michael Fredson.
All Books are signed by the
author.
All
books are shipped free by USPS Media Mail.
