Research into the Everett Massacre led me to this book. I picked it up expecting it to be a chore to get through, but was hooked within minutes. Clark's attention to the perspectives of individuals within the community give the entire book an immensely relatable feel. His ability to tell a story really brought the past to life. When I'd read the final pages, I found myself missing Everett - a city I've never visited.

I'll be seeking out his other books. ( )
