■DeWolfe, a history instructor
with three previously published
works, has put together a
fascinating array of pictures
and words describing noteable
■uses from the Portland and
the Oregon City area of the
19th century, and some of the
noteable and not-so-noteable
people of the time too.
“My research starts with the
picture,” says De Wolfe. “Some
historians start with the word
and never get to the picture.

DeWolfe is unabashedly
visual in his view of history.

Says De Wolfe, “More peo­
ple know their history through
movies, if that is history, than
through a book or what a pro­
fessor says. Like it or not, our
image has been projected or
sent abroad through this mov­
ing picture image. We’re avid

Much visual material can be

In it, 80 photographs show
