- In 77 maps and accompanying texts, this atlas presents the history of Washington state from prehistoric times to the present, Beginning with Washington's terrain climate, vegetation, and hydrography, it then displays and records the evolution of both Indian and white settlements, the development of the state's modern economy, and the progress of society and culture from Indian times to the present. Some of the maps in the atlas cover major historical events or specific periods; other show present-day patterns of activity and deal with the historical background in the accompanying commentary. Selective bibliographies refer readers to further readings on the subject of each map.
