Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Paws and Claws: June, 1930
Nothing could be more fitting and proper for students in this section of the country than to choose, as a motion for the Annual theme, that of Empire Builders. Those men who regardless of privation, danger, and even lurking death, pushed on to blaze the trail for those who were to follow should ever be remembered with gratitude by us who are profiting by their attainments. The days of the covered wagon, the dangers of Indian raids, the struggle against foreign claim ants - all are stories of the past for us. For us, the Inland Empire is a region of prosperity and peace - thanks to our Empire Builders.
In our book we have aimed to show through our page drawings the change which has come about in that part of the Inland Empire in which we are most interested - Spokane.
