Get set for ‘Seattle Walks’ at EHBC

Hear about some new/old ways to explore the city across the sound when Eagle Harbor Book Company favorite David B. Williams (author of “Too High and Too Steep”) returns to talk about his new book, “Seattle Walks: Discovering History and Nature in the City” at 3 p.m. Sunday, April 30.

This is not your typical pocket guide with a quick run down on neighborhoods and the best place to get coffee. In “Seattle Walks,” Williams weaves together the history, natural history and architecture of Seattle to paint a complex, nuanced and fascinating story. He shows readers Seattle in a new light and gives us an appreciation of how the city has changed over time, how the past has influenced the present and how nature is all around us — even in our urban landscape.

These walks vary in length and topography and cover both well known and surprising parts of the city.

While most are loops, there are a few one way adventures with an easy return via public transportation. Ranging along trails and sidewalks, the walks lead to panoramic views, intimate hideaways, architectural gems and beautiful greenways. With Williams as your knowledgeable and entertaining guide, encounter a new way to experience Seattle.
