BiblioMullen Books, Inc. ABAA / ILABMissoula, Montana: Mountain Press Publishing Company, Date: 2006. Softbound. VG, covers roll slightly. Color illustrated wraps, [xiv] 306pp, numerous BW illustrations. While most western U.S. cities developed along main railroad lines, the remote community of Boise, Idaho, was bypassed. How did Boise survive? Carol MacGregor answers that question with this comprehensive examination of Boise's beginnings, starting with the removal of the Northern Shoshoni and following the progress of government, infrastructure, business, and social institutions. She also describes architecture, the arts, and culture in Boise, as well as changes in ethnic and religious makeup. Investigating everything from racism and prostitution to hospitals, hotels, and high society, MacGregor takes the reader on an in-depth tour of how this distinctive western city developed. 2006.
