| Publisher Description: If you are a fan of Bill Bryson, Dave Barry, and Patrick McManus, you'll love (or really, really hate*) Around the Sound! From Olympia's mismatched buildings of uncertain origins to the faded Victorian grandeur of Port Townsend, Josh Kilen takes you around the Pacific Northwest's Puget Sound, sharing laugh-out-loud stories and quirky historical facts about this beautiful corner of the Pacific Northwest. You'll spend hours chuckling to yourself, maybe even laughing out loud, reading these short and amusing stories. Part travel essay, part humor writing, this book is filled with stories that are sure to make you smile. So kick back, settle down into your favorite chair, and prepare to be delighted! *Author's Note: Some people just can't be pleased, no matter how much you try. I find the best thing is to let bygones be... well, you know. This book is mostly for people you enjoy laughing while they learn something. It's my sincere hope that you are one of those fine folks and not the 'others.' |
