Atomic Geography A Personal History of the Hanford Nuclear Reservation Melvin R. Adams “I have spent a career sifting through the rubble, the abandoned documents, the factories and tools, with the thought of saving what remains of water, land, and animals. But water, wind, and root have their way.”—Melvin R. Adams

Perhaps the first environmental engineer at Hanford, Melvin R. Adams spent twenty-four years on its 586 square miles of desert terrain. His thoughtful vignettes recall challenges and sites he worked on or found personally intriguing, like the 216-U-pond. Nestled among the trees, the pond looks like a pleasant place to go fishing. In reality, it has been contaminated with plutonium longer than any place on earth.

In what Adams considers his most successful project, he helped determine the initial scope of the soil and solid waste cleanup. The Environmental Restoration and Disposal Facility today covers 107 acres and has a capacity of 18 million tons.

His group also designed and tested a marked, maintenancefree disposal barrier. It uses natural materials that will remain stable for thousands of years. They expanded a network of groundwater monitoring wells to define contaminated plumes, assess treatment effectiveness, and provide relevant data to hydrologists. They also developed a pilot scale pump and treatment plant for use on a four-square-mile carbon tetrachloride plume. His environmental and engineering unit included a biological control group fondly dubbed “The Weeds.” They controlled tumbleweeds, tracked and collected plants and animals found growing or digging in contaminated sites, and caught stray wildlife discovered in Hanford offices. In Atomic Geography, Adams presents some surprising revelations. He shares his perspective on leaking highlevel waste storage tanks, dosimeters, and Hanford’s obsession with safety. He even answers the question he is asked most, insisting he does not glow in the dark. He leaves that unique ability to spent fuel rods in water storage basins—a phenomenon known as Cherenkov radiation. Melvin R. Adams has published two other books with WSU Press, both on southeastern Oregon: Netting the Sun: A Personal Geography of the Oregon Desert and Remote Wonders: An Explorer’s Guide to Southeast Oregon.

Hop King Ezra Meeker’s Boom Years Dennis M. Larsen Two of Ezra Meeker’s defining traits were his ability to recognize business opportunities and his willingness to take risks. In 1852, the Washington Territory pioneer traveled west over the Oregon Trail, finally settling near Tacoma in the Puyallup Valley. In the mid-1860s, he planted his first hops, and despite wild price fluctuations, attained modest success. Then he met beer brewer Henry Weinhard and began selling to him directly. Approximately twenty-five acres of hop roots led to $9,000 in sales—$154,000 today. Inspired, other farmers slowly joined in, shipping produce to San Francisco. Ezra served as a broker and traveled to New York and London to open new markets. Convinced Northwest hops were superior, he hired a respected chemist to analyze the quantity of extract produced from Bavarian and New York hops as well as his own. The results confirmed his claims.

AUGUST Illustrations • map • notes • bibliography • index 6" x 9" • 368 pages Paperback • $26.95 ISBN 978-0-87422-342-2

Then in 1882, Meeker quietly bypassed California middlemen, sending Washington hops directly to New York. That same year, Pacific coast growers benefited from widespread crop failure elsewhere. Desperate brewers offered astronomical prices and Puyallup farmers were rich. E. Meeker and Co. became the largest hops exporter in the country, and Ezra the official “hop king.”

Rarely idle, Meeker also managed a large family, became involved in philanthropy and development schemes, promoted Washington and Puget Sound, was active in politics and women’s suffrage, and tried to manufacture sugar from beets. Impulsive and pugnacious, he was an intimidating business opponent who became entangled in numerous lawsuits. Sadly, a combination of bad investments, lack of diversification, the 1893 depression, a financial betrayal, and an aphid plague brought Meeker’s boom years to a close. In his newest book, Dennis M. Larsen recounts Ezra Meeker’s profitable years as well as the intertwined histories of hops, Puyallup, and Washington Territory. An independent historian and former social studies teacher, he has written for historical journals and is author/co-author of four other books. He speaks frequently on the Oregon Trail, Northwest pioneers, and of course, Ezra Meeker.

Dividing the Reservation Alice C. Fletcher’s Nez Perce Allotment Diaries and Letters, 1889–1892 Nicole Tonkovich

DIVIDING THE RESERVATION Alice C. Fletcher’s Nez Perce Allotment Diaries and Letters 1889–1892 N I C O L E

T O N K O V I C H

Alice Cunningham Fletcher was both formidable and remark­ able. A pioneering ethnologist who penetrated occupations dominated by men, she was the first woman to hold an endowed chair at Harvard’s Peabody Museum of American Archaeology and Ethnology—during a time the institution did not admit female students. She helped write the Dawes General Allotment Act of 1887 legislation that reshaped American Indian policy, and became one of the first women to serve as a federal Indian agent, working with the Omahas, the Winnebagos, and finally the Nez Perces.

Charged with supervising the daunting task of resurveying, verifying, and assigning nearly 757,000 acres of the Nez Perce Reservation, Fletcher also had to preserve land for transportation routes and restrain white farmers and stockmen who were claiming prime properties. She sought to “give the best lands to the best Indians,” but was challenged by the Idaho terrain, the complex ancestries of the Nez Perces, and her own misperceptions about Native life. A commanding presence, Fletcher worked from a specialized tent that served as home and office, traveling with copies of laws, rolls of maps, and blank plats. She spent four summers on the project, completing close to 2,000 allotments.

SEPTEMBER Illustrations • maps • notes bibliography • index 7" x 10" • 376 pages Paperback • $29.95 ISBN 978-0-87422-344-6

This book is a collection of letters and diaries Fletcher wrote during this work. Her writing illuminates her relations with the key players in the allotment, as well as her internal conflicts over dividing the reservation. Taken together, these documents offer insight into how federal policy was applied, resisted, and amended in this early application of the Dawes General Allotment Act. Nicole Tonkovich is Professor of Literature at the University of California, San Diego. Her research interests center around nineteenth-century cultural productions by American women. She has published numerous essays, and her books include The Allotment Plot: Alice C. Fletcher, E. Jane Gay, and Nez Perce Survivance and Trading Gazes: Anglo-American Women Photographers among North American Indians. “Virtually none of the documentary sources for Dividing the Reservation exist electronically and only a small portion had been unearthed by previous scholarly research…this book is a genuine contribution.”—Dennis Baird, University of Idaho professor emeritus

Orphan Road The Railroad Comes to Seattle, 1853–1911 Kurt E. Armbruster Seattle residents were bitterly disappointed in 1873 when the Northern Pacific selected rival Tacoma as the future Puget Sound terminus for Washington Territory’s first transcontinental railroad. Lavishly illustrated, Orphan Road depicts the growth of railways across the Puget Sound region, including Tacoma’s frantic quest for a saltwater terminal of their own, descriptions of individual lines, and the colorful personalities and urban aspirations that eventually brought Seattle to the forefront of Washington commerce. “Richly researched and entertainingly told…the book is rich in detail for intense rail fans, [but] has plenty to intrigue the casual rail fan or those just interested in slices of Northwest life.”—Bill Virgin, Seattle Post-Intelligencer

The Bridge of the Gods A Romance of Indian Oregon F. H. Balch with an introduction by Stephen L. Harris Idealistic New England missionary Cecil Grey’s vision draws him 3,000 miles west. Amazingly, he discovers the exact stone bridge—tomanowos—he saw in his dream. It is a creation of the gods, and legend says that as long as the natural rock arch stands, the Willamettes will rule. Confident, their chief Multnomah becomes a fierce and ruthless leader, reigning over a network of Pacific Coast tribes from Mount Shasta to today’s British Columbia. But when an old Indian prophet warns of a different future and Grey fatefully encounters Wallulah, Multnomah’s gentle daughter, tragedy follows. Set in 1690s prehistoric Oregon, this regional classic was the first work of fiction by a Northwest writer to feature Native Americans as main characters. The Bridge of the Gods also evokes an extraordinary sense of place, introducing readers to the Pacific Northwest’s primal forests, untamed rivers, and volcanic peaks. A new introduction by Stephen L. Harris offers interpretive content and a biography of the author.

Unusual Punishment Inside the Walla Walla Prison, 1970–1985 Christopher Murray Unusual Punishment reveals the astonishing events and personalities surrounding the collapse of an outmoded prison culture and its agonizing transformation into a modern control system.

Illustrations • maps • notes index 6" x 9" • 330 pages Paperback • $22.95 ISBN 978-0-87422-339-2

The Washington State Penitentiary in Walla Walla was once a place where the warden exercised absolute authority. Guards and prisoners called it “super custody.” Then, in the early 1970s, well-meaning but naïve reform ignited chaos. Convicts abused their new freedoms—roaring prisonmade choppers around the Big Yard, openly using drugs, and taking lives with shanks and bombs. Correctional officers became frustrated and afraid. A new superintendent’s dramatic actions curtailed the most dysfunctional inmate privileges and leadership but couldn’t prevent a guard’s murder, an intense lockdown, and a cell block riot. Officers also rebelled, demanding a brutal crackdown and return to super custody. As time passed, courts intervened, politics changed, and in 1981, a charismatic correctional leader—charming in public and tyrannical in private—took command. He imposed his will and finally restored order.

The Fur Trade Gamble North West Company on the Pacific Slope, 1800–1820 Lloyd Keith and John C. Jackson Before Hudson’s Bay Company domination, Montreal entrepreneurs and American John Jacob Astor vied to command Northwest fur trade—a global mercantile initiative in which controlling the mouth of the Columbia River and developing the China market were major prizes.

Businessmen first and explorers second, these fur moguls risked lives and capital as they gambled on the price of beaver pelts, purchases of ships and trade goods, international commerce laws, and the effects of war. They also quarreled, surveyed transportation routes, built trading posts, and worked to forge relationships with trappers. As they lost valuable natural resources and intermixed with other cultures, the region’s native peoples were significantly impacted. Economically, the endeavors failed. Drawing from a reservoir of previously unexploited correspondence, including the letters of clerk Finnan McDonald and a revealing personal memorandum by Fort George partner James Keith, the authors examine the era from a unique business perspective.

All for the Greed of Gold Will Woodin’s Klondike Adventure Edited by Catherine Holder Spude When the Cleveland left Seattle’s docks in 1898, William Jay Woodin was on board, chasing the century’s last great gold rush and hoping to earn a fortune providing supplies. Enhanced with family photographs and skillfully edited, Will’s delightfully candid diaries, a short story, and 1910 memoir record the travails of his quest. Unlike many stampeders, Will’s party chose to travel both the White Pass Trail and the Tutshi Trail, and his story offers a rare glimpse into this less common route. Will’s experiences also epitomize a mostly untold story of how working-class men endured a grueling Yukon journey. He was part of an emerging middle class who, with minimal formal education, left farm life to seek urban employment. Whether packing tons of goods on their own backs or building boats at the Windy Arm camp, Will brings to light the cooperation and camaraderie necessary to survival.

The Snake River-Palouse and the Invasion of the Inland Northwest Clifford E. Trafzer and Richard D. Scheuerman Originally released in 1986 as Renegade Tribe, this award-winning title sensitively analyzes the compelling saga of the Great Columbia Plateau’s Snake River-Palouse. These resilient tribal people resisted settler colonialism and fought tenaciously to preserve their way of life. They never abandoned the struggle for tribal sovereignty, opposing the Walla Walla Treaties of 1855 and fighting as patriots during the 1855–58 Plateau Indian War. This revised edition offers a new introduction and epilogue by the authors and a new foreword by Wilson Wewa, a descendant of Chief Tilcoax.

Richards Washington Territory’s first governor remains as controversial today as he was to his frontier contemporaries during the Pacific Northwest’s most turbulent era—the mid-1850s. Indian wars, martial law, and bitter political disputes, as well as the establishment of a new, sound governmental system, characterized Isaac I. Stevens’s years as governor (1853–1857). Richard’s definitive biography is one of the essential works on the history of early Washington, as well as of northern Idaho and western Montana, which in the 1850s were included in Washington Territory. This revised edition offers a new preface.
