Description
Knute "Skip" Berger's trenchant commentaries in his "Mossback" column for "Seattle Weekly," and now Crosscut.com, have made him one of the most popular and prickly figures in Seattle journalism. This book collects the best of those columns on politics, culture, enterprise, and odd local behavior. For anyone who wants to understand the Pacific Northwest through the gimlet eye of Seattle's own "crank with a conscience," this is a must-read.
About the Author
Knute Berger, former editor of Seattle Weekly and founding editor of Washington Monthly, also writes Washington Law and Politics and Seattle magazine. Both he and Timothy Egan, author of The Worst Hard Time, live in Seattle.
Praise for Pugetopolis: A Mossback Takes on Growth Addicts, Weather Wimps, and the Myth of Seattle Nice…
"He’s neither old-school nor new-school, which is to say he’s fad-resistant. The most overused, most sought-after word in modern American life? Authentic! That’s Mossback&#8212the alter ego he’s used for his columns of the last half-dozen years." &#8212
