Ten historians from the United States and Canada explore society, culture, and change in the resource-laden Northwest. Essays examine Spanish exploration; the relationship of a fragile Canadian union with its powerful southern neighbor; regional novelists and literature; black and white immigration; the iconography of nuclear energy; and the interaction of Indian reservations with the dominant society's economic, conservation, and legal institutions.
