2 comments about Made to Last: Historic Preservation in Seattle and King County.
- If you are into historic preservation, or if you are interested in Seattle and King County landmarks, you have got to have this.
It is a well presented, well organized book and is also a pretty good general reference. The more useful items include the Seattle and King County Landmarks inventories and preservation district descriptions. This is the kind of thing you wish you had whenever you walk or drive through an historic area; I'm still looking for others like it for other cities, such as Portland OR. Although I'm not sure it is that important, I agree that better, bigger and more abundant architectural photos would be a nice touch. As it is, though, this is a nice primer for interested folks to keep on the shelf.
- This is a great book that is very well written and researched, packed full of important information that is valuable to the longtime resident as well as the first time visitor. The old photos and written information on Seattle's history was not what I expected, it's a much more modern city. One only wishes that the third edition will have many more photos of the landmarks and have them in color, the are so beautiful as evidenced by the cover. This is the only drawback but there are many more photos here than anywhere else. When its not raining, Seattle has great views. Kreisman certainly has a passion for his subject and based on the bio, lives it everyday.
