In his talk based on his book, Homewaters: A Human and Natural History of Puget Sound, David B. Williams will focus on the long story of the Sound, tracing human history from the earliest records more than 12,500 years ago to present. Along the way, he'll discuss Native people, the arrival of explorers and settlers, and how the various inhabitants adapted to place. He will also weave in stories of the natural world, covering often overlooked species such as Olympia oysters, rockfish, geoduck, kelp, and herring, as well as salmon and orca.
