Oregon's promise : an interpretive history / David Peterson del Mar.

Summary:

"The book's many themes revolve around Peterson del Mar's consideration of how Oregonians have attempted to build a prosperous and just society. He examines both the traditional center of Oregon history and its often overlooked margins - the people who have struggled to be included in Oregon's promise." "The author is both a respected historian and an engaging writer, with a talent for explaining Oregon's past in a way that will appeal to all readers, from natives to newcomers, from students to scholars."--Jacket.
