Travel. Nonfiction. HTML:

Portland Hill Walks is no ordinary guidebook. No restaurant ratings, no rehashed explanations of how the city got its name. Instead, in twenty meandering, view-studded strolls from forested canyons to cityscape peaks, this lively travelogue answers questions you may never have thought to ask, such as: What street used to be a row of floating homes? What eastside peak, with its "healthful air," was home to tuberculosis sanatoriums? What happened to the lake in Guilds Lake? What Portlander modeled swimwear in the U.S. Senate? Explore the city's streets, stairs, trails, and hidden passageways to discover the stories and spirit of a town rated among the country's most livable places.

This is a very interesting book, if you live anywhere near Portland and are able to actually go on the walks discussed inside. I am looking forward to doing some of them (most of them) once the weather warms up a bit. I feel very privileged to live in Portland, so much beauty as well as so much to do an see relatively near by.

(Edit: My husband and I "courted" doing these hill walks. Some of them are better than others, in practice, but this book will always have a special place in my heart.) ( )
