From canoes to the mosquito fleet to our modern day ferry system, boats have been a principal means of travel around Puget Sound. In a landscape dominated by forest and sea, water was often the best way to get from point A to point B. In this talk, which is based on research for his book, Homewaters: A Human and Natural History of Puget Sound, David B. Williams explores the 13,000-year history of transportation in this extraordinary waterway to illustrate how landscape has a central influence on the residents of a place and how they live their lives.
