Department of History. Pacific Lutheran University.

The Local Histories are research projects created by students in a Pacific Lutheran University upper division undergraduate history course on the West and Northwest. Many of the projects examine the history of a particular Northwest city or town, while some consider specific issues in a town’s or the region’s history: Japanese internment during World War II or the history of municipality’s fire department for example. In addition to the research paper, many of the files include newspaper clippings, and interview transcriptions
