About this product

Product Information

Three Tree Point is a prominent peninsula on the eastern shore of Puget Sound about 14 miles south of Seattle. Its name came from three massive fir trees that stood on the north side of the point at the beginning of the 20th century. The area remained largely undeveloped until 1903 when the Three Tree Point Company began marketing the community as a place to build summer homes. Seattle's business elite built houses at the point to take advantage of the beach lifestyle for which it has become known. Over the years, Three Tree Point and its 2.5 miles of waterfront emerged as one of the Northwest's most unique residential communities. Its history is a diverse mixture of family life, unusual characters, Fourth of July celebrations, shipwrecks, fishing derbies, and storytelling.

Title: Burien authors to release Three Tree Point history book on March 8 Author: Eric Mathison Publisher: The Highline Times Date: 2/24/2010 Three residents of Three Tree Point have published a book about the unique Burien peninsula community, tracing its history through more than 200 vintage photographs. "Images of America Three Tree Point" will be officially released on Monday, March 8. Pam and Guy Harper were both born and raised at Three Tree Point. Their parents and grandparents also lived there, as did Pam's great-grandparents. Pam and Guy are also Highline High graduates. Both are retired. Guy is a Northwest Native carver who produces masks, steam bent boxes and panels. He was also the founding commodore of the Three Tree Point Yacht Club. Pam is a Burien community activist and was a leader of Explorer Post 950. Through the post, hundreds of young people learned the sport of sailing. Doug Shadel also lives on Three Tree Point with his wife Renee and two children, Nick and Emily. Shadel is the author of five previous books and is state director for AARP Washington and was previously a fraud investigator and special assistant attorney general in the state Attorney General's office. Charles Ganong, an occasional contributor to the Times/News, wrote the book's introduction. The Point received its name from three massive fir trees that stood on its north side at the beginning of the 20th century. The area was largely undeveloped until 1903 when the Three Tree Point Company began marketing the community as a place to build summer homes for those desiring a beach lifestyle. The book presents images of a diverse mixture of family life, unusual characters, holiday celebrations, shipwrecks, fishing derbies and storytelling. Highlights of the book include a Pulitzer prize winning photo by Seattle Times photographer Jerry Gay of firefighters resting after fighting a house fire, never before published images from pioneer photographer Asahel Curtis, and stories of the Point "from shacks to mansions." The softcover book with a list price of $21.99 will be available March 8 at area bookstores, independent retailers and online retailers or through Arcadia Publishing at 888-313-2665 or www.arcadiapublishing.com.

Super impressed with this seller! They had the best price by far for this book! Both the cost of the book and the shipping fee was far better than average! The book came exactly as described, it was well packaged and quite a bit earlier than expected! The seller was polite and replied quickly to my messages. I’ll definitely make another purchase soon! Thank you to the seller! Be safe and keep up the great work!

WONDERFUL book! Better than described, in just like new condition [not just good]. Packaged very carefully, shipped very securely. Great seller, would buy from again in a heartbeat! No communication occurred, but I imagine it would have been as good as the rest of their customer service. Very happy with purchase, thank you very much!
