Inhalt:
"Focusing on the 8-mile stretch of the main stem of the creek from the forks of Elkhorn to Knight's Bridge, Taylor explores the history of the region and formation of the forks community, as well as its identity as a site of early industrialization. Throughout the book, Taylor examines Elkhorn Valley's earliest surveyors and settlers, the discovery of artifacts and fossils in the region, the history of the Innes family, artist Paul Sawyier's visual documentations of the creek, and the environmental changes that came with settlement and commercial development"--
