Pang: 50th Anniversary First Nonstop Trans-Pacific Flight
Regular price $9.95/
Shipping calculated at checkout.
Pang depicts the historic flight, October 5, 1931, of Clyde Pangborn and Hugh Herndon in the Miss Veedol. Discover how these two daredevil adventurers struggled against extreme adversity in their determination to be first to fly nonstop across the Pacific Ocean. This is a true story of two remarkable men caught between luck, war, and courage. Although these legendary flyers never received the universal acclaim of Charles Lindbergh, the communities of Misawa, Aomori prefecture, Japan and Wenatchee/East Wenatchee, Washington keep their story alive. In fact, the Spirit of Wenatchee project resulted in a resurgence of interest in Pang’s life and accomplishments. The History Channel produced a segment on the story in 2001; KSPS-TV produced a program entitled, “Upside Down Pangborn, First Across the Pacific;” and NHK, Japan’s public television organization produced a program that coincided with the grand opening of the museum in Misawa.
The Japan Science Foundation, the City of Misawa and Aomori prefecture built this museum in dedication to aviation with a replica of the Miss Veedol, constructed by Century Aviation of East Wenatchee, as the facility centerpiece. In conjunction, The Spirit of Wenatchee, an offshoot of the Experimental Aircraft Association chapter at Pangborn Memorial Airport in East Wenatchee, built another replica of Miss Veedol with plans to reenact the non-stop flight across the Pacific.
This revised edition of Pang was published to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the flight and to the salute the courageous pilots. Pang recounts the historic story from Mr. Lodato’s unique perspective. This publication, written by J. D. Lodato, himself a pilot and participant in the Spirit of Wenatchee project, has original illustrations by Charles Reasoner that are complimented with historical photos. One photo includes the crash-landing of Miss Veedol in Wenatchee, Washington after spending 41 hours, 13 minutes in flight. Discover why these two American pilots were grateful to finally depart from Sabishiro Beach, Japan after being detained nearly two months in Tokyo. Today, the memory of the flight is a warm tie between Washington and Japan.

Who Pooped in the Cascades? Scat and Tracks for Kids
Regular price $11.95/
Shipping calculated at checkout.
The Cascade Range stretches over 700 miles from northern California to British Columbia. The mountain range is full of wildlife and volcanoes to explore, but watch where you step! The animals that live there are often hard to find-but not their poop! Join Emily, Michael, May, and their parents as they examine poop (scat) and footprints (tracks) to find out who pooped in the Cascades. By examining signs left by animals, the kids learn about animal behavior, diet, and identification. Who Pooped in the Cascades? is the perfect backpack companion for your trip to any part of the Cascades. Fun illustrations of the animals and their scat and tracks supplement the charming story, and a quick-reference chart at the back makes field identification a breeze.

Eating the Pacific Northwest
Regular price $19.99/
Shipping calculated at checkout.
From the brisk waters of Seattle to the earthy mushrooms of Portland, author Darrin Nordahl takes us on a journey to expand our palates with the local flavors of the beautiful Pacific Northwest. There are a multitude of indigenous fruits, vegetables, mushrooms, and seafood waiting to be rediscovered in the luscious PNW. Eating the Pacific Northwest looks at the unique foods that are indigenous to the region including salmon, truffles, and of course, geoduck, among others. Festivals featured include the Oregon Truffle Festival and Dungeness Crab and Seafood Festival, and there are recipes for every ingredient, including Buttermilk Fried Oysters and Nootka Roses and Salmonberries. Nordahl also discusses some of the larger agricultural, political, and ecological issues that prevent these wild, and arguably tastier foods, from reaching our table.
