More about the book
The rich history of Roche Harbor, celebrated for its deep waters and natural resources, reflects its significance to both the Lummi and Songhees peoples and later British settlers who established a military camp in 1860. For nearly a century, limestone quarrying contributed to the development of West Coast cities and individual wealth. Today, Roche Harbor remains a popular destination for outdoor activities such as boating, fishing, and kayaking, serving as a gateway to the scenic American San Juan Islands and Canadian Gulf Islands.
