*Seattle History
(1) (2) Long-forgotten, and unknown to most present-day Seattle residents, Horace Roscoe Cayton (1859-1940), pioneer African American publisher of the Seattle Republican, political activist, and influential member of the Seattle community comes to life through his newspaper articles and community year books. Ed Diaz, president of AAAHRP, who is presently writing biographical essays on Horace Roscoe Cayton and Revels Cayton for the forthcoming African American National Biography (Oxford University Press), spent hundreds of hours researching and compiling Horace Cayton’s work.
(3) “A notorious World War II event in Seattle gets a convincing revisionist examination in this painstakingly researched first book by one of the Northwest's most respected television journalists. What has long been described as a ‘race riot’ resulting in the lynching of an Italian prisoner of war at Fort Lawton in Magnolia turns out to be a much different story indeed, as well as a travesty of justice, thanks to the scrupulous spadework of the one-time attorney [Jack Hamann] and his trusty research partner and wife, Leslie Hamann” — John Marshall, Seattle Post-Intelligencer Book Critic
