Book Synopsis Timberline Lodge by : Sarah Baker Munro
Download or read book Timberline Lodge written by Sarah Baker Munro and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2016 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Timberline is a ski lodge on the sloped of Mt. Hood, Oregon, only 65 miles from Portland. Between 1936 and 1938 and in the middle of the Great Depression, it was hand built and furnished through the Works Progress Administration. When Pres. Franklin Roosevelt came to Oregon in 1937 to dedicate the lodge, its significance as a New Deal success was confirmed. Timberline stands today as an icon of New Deal art and Cascadian architecture. Its rustic style is complemented by locally sourced and handmade wood furniture, wrought iron furnishings, and textiles. Designated as a National Historical Landmark, the lodge, a living museum, is one of Oregon's most visited sites. It is managed for the public by the US Forest Service and operated as a ski area, hotel, and tourist attraction by R.L.K. and Company." --

Book excerpt: Internationally renowned Timberline Lodge is a thriving ski lodge near Portland, Oregon. The Lodge is one of the best-known WPA buildings, built and furnished entirely by the craftsmanship of 400 artisans of the northwest during the Depression Era. Few who visit today realize that it was nearly derelict by the 1950's nor do they know the story of Richard L. Kohnstamm, who saved Timberline. This book with its breath-taking photos and engaging essays celebrates the Lodge and the people who cared enough to build and then preserve the house that Oregon built on Mount Hood. The magnificent icon Timberline Lodge was dedicated by Franklin D. Roosevelt in September 1937 and designated a National Historic Landmark in 1977.

Download or read book Timberline Lodge written by Sarah Munro and published by Timber Press (OR). This book was released on 2009 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Timberline Lodge — the magnificent Oregon icon on Mount Hood — is one the few twentieth-century American buildings of its size constructed and furnished entirely by hand. Dedicated by Franklin D. Roosevelt in September 1937 and a National Landmark since 1977, the lodge attracts nearly 2 million visitors a year. From construction to decoration, Works Progress Administration funds employed more than 400 workers and 100 artists, including a photographer who took the forbidden photo of FDR in his wheelchair and a ski patrol who bunked in the stable. Timberline Lodge is both a museum of craft traditions and an active mountain destination. The first Magic Mile chairlift at Timberline was the second chairlift in the nation. The exterior of the lodge was used in the opening scene of The Shining, and visitors can see a piece of Room 237's door and the axe immortalized by Jack Nicholson in the movie. Richly illustrated with historical photos and stunning new color photography, Timberline Lodge includes biographical sketches of nearly 60 artists and describes more than 250 works of art in the collection.

Book Synopsis David Douglas, a Naturalist at Work by : Jack Nisbet
Download or read book David Douglas, a Naturalist at Work written by Jack Nisbet and published by Sasquatch Books. This book was released on 2012-11-06 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During a meteoric career that spanned from 1825 to 1834, David Douglas made the first systematic collections of flora and fauna over many parts of the greater Pacific Northwest. Despite his early death, colleagues in Great Britain attached the Douglas name to more than 80 different species, including the iconic timber tree of the region. David Douglas, a Naturalist at Work is a colorfully illustrated collection of essays that examines various aspects of Douglas's career, demonstrating the connections between his work in the Pacific Northwest of the 19th century and the place we know today. From the Columbia River's perilous bar to luminous blooms of mountain wildflowers; from ever-changing frontiers of technology to the quiet seasonal rhythms of tribal families gathering roots, these essays collapse time to shed light on people and landscapes. This volume is the companion book to a major museum exhibit about Douglas's Pacific Northwest travels that will open at the Northwest Museum of Arts & Culture in Spokane in September 2012.
