5.0 out of 5 stars
Great summary of little known history of up and coming Seattle neighborhood.
I especially was interested in the history of how Jefferson Park became a golf course. It seems that in an effort to stop Asian people from picnicking in the park, the local government turned it into a golf course. I wish they would open up more of it to a park again.

Having just started book found it interesting however facts are not accurate as I see it, deleating some of the depth of the history has changed the picture of some of the history. Holly Park Housing is one item I picked up on so far, will be reading rest of book in the next few weeks.

Paging through the book was like reliving the glorious hope of the 60's. I would love the book even if my photo from the Seattle Public Schools archives wasn't in it.
