Although we tend to think of urban and Native American histories as
somehow separate, in Seattle they have been inextricably linked, from
first contact at the end of the 18th century to the environmental
crises of the early 21st. As diverse peoples have learned to call this
place home and to live with each other here, ideas about place,
belonging, landscape, and nature have been central to this story.
