In the mid-19th century, the arrival of European settlers on Puget Sound brought about dramatic changes for both the Native American tribes who had lived there for centuries and the newcomers who sought to establish a new life in the region.

This book tells the story of those changes, drawing on a wealth of primary sources to provide a rich and detailed account of the interactions between Native Americans and settlers, the conflicts that arose, and the ways in which both groups adapted to the changing circumstances.

The book begins by describing the traditional cultures of the Native American tribes who lived on Puget Sound, including their way of life, their social and political organization, and their spiritual beliefs. It then traces the arrival of the first European explorers and settlers in the region, and the ways in which they interacted with the Native Americans.

The book goes on to discuss the conflicts that arose between Native Americans and settlers, including the Puget Sound War of 1855-1856. It also examines the ways in which both groups adapted to the changing circumstances, including the establishment of reservations and the development of new economic and social relationships.

The book concludes by reflecting on the legacy of the changes that occurred on Puget Sound in the mid-19th century. It argues that the arrival of European settlers had a profound impact on the Native American tribes who lived there, and that the region's history is still shaped by the interactions between Native Americans and settlers.

This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of Puget Sound, the Native American tribes who lived there, and the impact of European settlement on the region.
