I'll have to look for Sweetbriar - that definitely sounds like my kind of thing!Janahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17425630747759882177noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1070850225578687343.post-60434707341711689332013-07-12T02:52:43.583-07:002013-07-12T02:52:43.583-07:00I'm glad you posted about this, there are so m...I'm glad you posted about this, there are so many people, even Seattle natives, who don't know about this story. I'm reading 4 Wagons West right now plus several other books about Seattle's history, including a historical fiction series of 6 books called Sweetbriar by Brenda Wilbee, which is actually more factual and then fiction. The painting about the Battle of Seattle was, as you said, painted by Emily Inez Denny, the daughter of David and Louisa Denny. It's never too late to learn the history of your hometown. I love Historylink and Paul Dorpat's sites and I think you for sharing the history of Seattle with others.Annwynbrihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14280041818599278716noreply@blogger.com
