Gladstone History Vol 3 by author Herb Beals
Saturday, April 19, 2008 Nanette Jaeger
Word on the street from the Gladstone Historical Society : Volume 3 of Gladstone's history will be out next year.
Herb Beals' Volume 1 and Volume 2 covered the earliest history of Gladstone, and up to the Great Depression.
I'll be sure to post when Volume 3 is published. Will it cover up to our 100 year flood in 1996? The changing landscape of the Clackamas River? History of the library? We'll have to wait and find out
