Love made a PDF of the short book available (it's in the public domain) at his website for downloading. Makes for interesting reading, especially for Oregonians with curiosity about the state's history and its writers.

Finding A Lost Northwest Book
In the Sunday Oregonian, Matt Love from Nestucca Spit Press writes about his sleuthing to find whether or not an anthology was published for Oregon's centennial. Indeed there was and my favorite Oregon poet, William Stafford, had both a poem and short story in the anthology.

"Must Reading" and Best Writing About Oregon
My favorite local newspaper columnist, Bob Welch, offered a "must reading" list today for people visiting for the Olympic Trials. His list included 10 books "to read by Trials' end to understand us from all angles." He also adds 10 more Best of the Rest books (and Ray Atkeson's photography books) on his blog.
Lots of great writing and great reading about Oregon and Oregonians. I'm a 20-year "transplant" from Minnesota so I'm still learning about our beautiful state, its people, and many fine writers.
