About This Item
Arcadia Publishing, 2012-12-09. paperback. Very Good. 6x0x9. Arcadia Publishing [Published Date: 2012]. Soft cover, 127 pp. No other printings listed. In very good condition with light bumping to edges of covers and light overall scuffing. Binding tight. Pages clean and unmarked. NOT Ex-Library. NO remainder marks. Black and white illustrations throughout. [From back cover] The town of Langley, tagged "Village by the Sea," is perched on a low bluff near the southern end of Whidbey Island in Puget Sound. Town founder Jacob Anthes first purchased land here at age 15, helped plat the town in 1891, and built a wharf. As new families arrived, First Street filled with businesses and homes, and the town was incorporated in 1913. Fishing resorts sprang up, but when the passenger ferry service shifted from Langley to Clinton, the town languished. During the 1970s, an influx of young artists and hippies arrived with an appreciation of the area's unspoiled natural setting. Today, Langley offers a quiet, off-the-main-highway lifestyle with seaside beauty and the cultural stimuli of theater, art, and music.
