Little Washington
Little Washington: A Nostalgic Look at the Evergreen State's Smallest Towns | Nicole Hardina
1 post | 1 read
Washington’s Small Towns Have Great Stories. Little Washington presents 100 of the state’s tiniest towns. With populations under 3,500, these charming and unique locations dot the entire state—from Neah Bay along the Northwest coast to LaCrosse, a farming community in the eastern county of Whitman. With full-color photographs, fun facts, and fascinating details about every locale, it’s almost as if you’re walking down Main Street, waving hello to folks who know all of their neighbors. The selected locations help readers to appreciate the broader history of small-town life in Washington. Yet each featured town boasts a distinct narrative, as unique as the citizens who call these places home. These residents are innovators, hard workers, and—most of all—good people. The locations range from quaint to historic, and they wonderfully represent the Evergreen State. Little Washington, written by Nicole Hardina, is for anyone who grew up in a small town and for everyone who takes pride in being called a Washingtonian. They may be small towns, but they have huge character!

The title of this book refers to small towns in Washington State. The author classifies these as towns between 48 and 3500 in population. Each two page chapter gives a rundown of the town‘s history and how it fares today. Sad to read about the loss of tribal lands due to settlers and miners. Good reference book for local history buffs. Four stars for this one.
