style='font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Palatino Linotype";color:blue'>I found a
wonderful web site, one of those you could get lost in. It’s called
“Classics in Washington History” on the Washington Secretary of
State web site. It has the full-text of some very interesting-sounding
works. You do have to download a viewer, but it’s free and only
takes a few minutes. It’s worth it. Once you click on a
title, you can then do a search of the publication. I found my
great-great-grandfather mentioned in the History of Yakima County. Cool!
