For a great history of our historic and beautiful bay, look for Doug Allen’s recently published book “Shoalwater Willapa.” Available at the following locations:

On the Peninsula at Catherine O’Toole Books and Jack’s Country Store in Ocean Park and Independent Books (Sandpiper Mall) in Long Beach. Also at the Visitor’s Center on the wharf in Nahcotta. In Astoria at the Columbia River Maritime Museum and South Bend at the Pacific County Historical Museum and Something Special Gift Shop. In Raymond at Antilla’s, and also in Rosburg at Wahkiakum West.

A great idea for a holiday gift! $25.95 plus tax.
