Opis

A collection of the "Landmarks" articles published in the Flathead Beacon newspaper during the first year the column was printed. Writer/historian Jaix Chaix has researched various landmarks of the Flathead Valley, including historic homes of Kalispell and other places of the past, such as the Somers Ice House, the Bruyer Granary, the Demersville Cemetery and other local icons. The articles cover not just places - but also people - from pioneers to prominent capitalists, from the peculiar to the plain folk who helped shape the history of the Flathead Valley. Learn about how one landmark was thought to be haunted, how a newborn was named after wallpaper, and other quirky, all-but-forgotten facts about the homes and history of the Flathead Valley of Montana.
