season Kick off for
Historical Center
Well-known author and regional historian,
Jack Nisbet, will be giving a hand to local volunteers in starting out the 2015
season at the Kettle Falls Historical Center. On Saturday, May 16th at 1:00PM. Nisbet will be presenting
“Getting To Kettle Falls”, a detailed slide
show of explorer David Thompson’s map from 1810, when he toured the Kettle
Falls area to meet local Native American tribes. The map is one of the
centerpieces of Nisbet’s latest book, Ancient
Places, which incudes extensive information about the 9000 years of human
history in the Kettle Falls region. Nisbet will read portions of Ancient Places as well as guiding an
outdoor tour to historical points of interest around the Historical Center if
weather permits. Ancient Places, as
well as Nisbet’s other books will be available for purchase and Nisbet will be
available to sign copies. The event is free to the public.
The Historical Center is located 3 miles west
