The community of Keizer was shaped by the banks of the Willamette River. It was first inhabited by the Kalapuya tribe; and then came fur trappers and early missionaries farther north along the river. Homesteaders arrived in the 1840s. The rich river-bottom farmland remained quiet until the boom of automobiles after World War II. Keizer boasts neither fancy buildings nor brick edifices but proudly carries its spirit of volunteerism and perseverance. Pioneer Thomas Dove Keizur and Oregon senator Charles McNary are noted citizens. The iconic 1916 Keizer schoolhouse; now Keizer Heritage Center; is a cherished landmark. The story of Keizer comprises an account of the settlement of the state of Oregon--from wagon train to a thriving city. Keizer officially became an incorporated city in 1982.

One was totally clean and the other one with too many scribbles. They should give an even better discount for the second one.4 of 5 people found the following review helpful. Er... Book reviewBy Jon JaehnigI suppose I chose this rating because I bought the book for a class; but when the class is over; Ill be genuinely happy to put this book on my shelf; as opposed to trying to sell it to the campus book store; other used text book depository; or running it back through ; and not just because my copy is now covred in pen markings; pipe ash and coffee stains.The professor of the course made us aware that there are something like five editions of this work; and naturally; he has the most recent one; but any previous edition would probably suffice; and this one certainly did; containing; in some cases; more then the newer versions; with the primary issue being finding things under changed headings. Definitely a worth while purchase; whether for a college course or not.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Five StarsBy SuezBought for daughter. No complaint.
