Paperback. Etat : New. Seattle is a music town with rich, deep roots that have influenced the culture and identity of its civic life for decades. In a society that appreciates music but is ambivalent toward the profession of making it, the importance and contribution of Seattle's musicians have been routinely overlooked in historical accounts of the city. Kurt Armbruster fills that gap in this far-reaching and entertaining panorama of Seattle music from the 1890s to the 1960s, "before Seattle rocked."For this once-remote city, music forged links as real as those created by railroads and steamships. Classical music embodied the middle-class aspirations for gentility and cosmopolitan stature; jazz and blues gave Seattle's small African American community a vehicle for affirmation and economic advancement; ethnic music helped immigrants adjust to a new home; songs and drumming kept the memories of the Duwamish alive in a changing world. Before Seattle Rocked is enlivened by personal anecdotes and memories from many of Seattle's most beloved musicians and is enriched by historic photos of the changing music scene.Before Seattle Rocked was made possible in part by a grant from 4Culture's Heritage Program.…

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. Seattle residents were bitterly disappointed in 1873 when the Northern Pacific selected rival Tacoma as the future Puget Sound terminus for Washington Territory's first transcontinental railroad. Kurt E. Armbruster's enthralling account describes their frantic quest for an Elliott Bay saltwater depot--including the scheming between city founders and railroad companies.Even in early territorial times Seattle aspired to be the "Queen City of Puget Sound" by tapping into a rich Asian Pacific commerce, and a cross-country rail link to the eastern United States would play a critical role. Frustratingly thwarted again and again, "Seattle Spirit" finally prevailed by 1890, but not without cost. The city was forced into "war" with the Northern Pacific over extensive land grants, and with railroad barons attempting to manipulate local politics and commercial expansion.Armbruster's lavishly illustrated narrative portrays the growth of railways across the Puget Sound region-from the initial 1853-54 government surveys to the completion of the Milwaukee Road in 1911. The accounts include details about individual lines, the intense Seattle-Tacoma rivalry, and the colorful personalities and urban ambitions that eventually brought the Emerald City to the forefront of Washington commerce.
