Frontier Legacy: History of the Olympic National Forest 1897 to 1960Drawing from diary entries and work logs, official accounts, memoirs, personal reminiscences, and hundreds of photographs and reproductions, Jack Rooney provides a well illustrated history of the wild peninsula from the perspectives of the hearty individuals working on the land with the U.

Drawing from diary entries and work logs, official accounts, memoirs, personal reminiscences, and hundreds of photographs and reproductions, Jack Rooney provides a well illustrated history of the wild peninsula from the perspectives of the hearty individuals working on the land with the U.S. Forest Service from the late-nineteenth century through the mid-twentieth century. Over the recent centuries the Olympic Peninsula has seen immense change, yet still contains the largest and most diverse wilderness area in Washington. Rooney tells the forest's history from the designation of the Olympic Forest Reserve in 1897, through the intense industrial demand from a quickly growing local population and the impact of two world wars, the controversy around the creation of Olympic National Park in 1938, and up to the significant changes and practices introduced by the Multiple-use Act of 1960. Many of the vital, fundamental, social and environmental issues and decisions confronted a century ago still remain to be reckoned with today. Though he attributed the completion of Frontier Legacy to the many other thoughtful women and men who took photographs, contributed documentation, or simply cared and saved important maps and artifacts, Jack Rooney has made an indelible contribution to preserving the history of the Olympic National Forest and that of Olympic Peninsula.

Love the look, but color fades after 2-3 long days in the sun
Size: One Size, Color: Shark/Pfg Palms
Great fit and design, but black fades to brown from sunlight way to quick. Hats are meant to block the sun, so they should be able to hold up to UV better than this hat

As good as the name brands and fits well
Special Size: Midweight, Size: 38W x 28L, Color: Tinted Medium Blue
Just like the name brands, nice and sturdy at a great price. Fits well, feels better than the L's and the W's that's all I'll say there. Solid material, should last years.

Good if they fit
Special Size: Midweight, Size: 30W x 30L, Color: Dark Midnight Wash
The jeans are great, once I got the right size, but these I brought back to Whole Foods and got charged anyway because Amazon never got them back!! But cheaper than Levi’s

Important fit information
Special Size: Midweight, Size: 34W x 30L, Color: Tinted Medium Blue
Be aware that these jeans are loose fit, not fitted through hips and thighs. Excellent quality, well made, great value. But if you are not overweight, if you have a trim build you will NOT like these. They were very baggy and loose around my husband's butt and thighs, so we had to return them. However, if you have a more generous build under your size 34 waist you WILL like these, and the waist has some stretch. I removed one star for calling these fitted through hips and thighs. They're not.
