It uses captioned pictures to tell the story. This book deals with the history of Downtown Everett. It breaks the timeline into 10 year periods of time from the beginning of Everett. The pictures are a great snapshot of downtown Everett. If you grew up in the area. this will take you down memory lane.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.
