Light, water, and woods have always inspired Seattle artists and poets, and their views at the end of our millennium are especially rich, complex, subtle, and often humorous. This title celebrates these individual visions in a commemorative book sponsored by the City of Seattle through the Seattle Arts Commission.

Photographs by Marsha Burns, Michael Burns, Lee Friedlander, Natalie Fobes, Peter DeLory and poetry by Denise Levertov, Richard Hugo, Colleen J. McElroy, and others are brought together to create a handsome and thoughtful portrait of Seattle at the end of its defining century.
