註釋
What does being an urban centre for a large geographical region do to the communal identity of a city such as Spokane? How does the relative youth of the city relate to the sense of place in geography, but also in time? These are some of the issues addressed in David Wang's anthology. The book views the western mid-size regional city as a complex and unique phenomenon. Its in-depth discussions of neighbourhood, geography, architectural themes and gambits, parks, urban renewal and preservation, and other aspects of a city's composition, enact a portraiture with implications far beyond Spokane itself.
