Description

From Lake Coeur d’Alene to its confluence with the Columbia, the Spokane River travels 111 miles of assorted and incessantly spectacular terrain―rural, urban, in places wild. The river has been a trading and gathering place for Local peoples for thousands of years. With bountiful trout, accessible swimming holes, and challenging rapids this is a recreational mecca for residents and tourists alike. The Spokane also bears the legacy of business growth and continues to be caught amid interests competing over natural resources.

The twenty-eight contributors to this collection―including activists, storytellers, and scientists―profile this living river thru private mirrored image, history, science, and poetry. They bring about a keen environmental awareness of resource scarcity, climate change, and cultural survival tied to the river’s fate.
