Washington: A State of Contrasts (2nd Edition)
Regular price $64.95The Washington: A State of Contrasts, 2nd Edition - Textbook is more than an updated version of a best selling product. Rather, it is a complete re-imagining of the work to meet the demanding standards of the twenty-first century classroom. Whereas our first edition approached the history, geography, economy, and politics of Washington from a thematic viewpoint, the second edition takes a chronological approach focusing on the people of Washington.
The primary objective is to describe the diverse people who live in Washington, where they came from and why, their contributions to our society and culture, and the contemporary activities in which they participate. As a result of this approach, a comprehensive picture of Washington emerges; one that appreciates the historical contributions of all peoples, accurately explains contemporary social, cultural, economic, and political activities, and provides proper context for Washington’s role in the larger American and global community.
The second edition consists of 13 chapters, discussed in chronological order. It is written at a level appropriate for 7th -12th grade secondary students. To facilitate student comprehension, the layout of the book was designed to be more interactive. Thus new vignettes, color photographs, illustrations, diagrams, maps, and artwork were added. The free flowing layout engages student curiosity and supports the text. Overall, the changes have resulted in a superior product that meets and exceeds the Essential Academic Learning Requirements (EALRs). Furthermore, Directed Media Inc. consciously responds to feedback received from educators across the state.

Little Washington
Regular price $18.95Little Washington presents 100 of the state’s tiniest towns. With populations under 3,500, these charming and unique locations dot the entire state―from Neah Bay along the Northwest coast to LaCrosse, a farming community in the eastern county of Whitman. With full-color photographs, fun facts, and fascinating details about every locale, it’s almost as if you’re walking down Main Street, waving hello to folks who know all of their neighbors.
The selected locations help readers to appreciate the broader history of small-town life in Washington. Yet each featured town boasts a distinct narrative, as unique as the citizens who call these places home. These residents are innovators, hard workers, and―most of all―good people. The locations range from quaint to historic, and they wonderfully represent the Evergreen State. Little Washington, written by Nicole Hardina, is for anyone who grew up in a small town and for everyone who takes pride in being called a Washingtonian.

Regular price $8.95Pang: 50th Anniversary First Nonstop Trans-Pacific Flight
Regular price $11.95Pang depicts the historic flight, October 5, 1931, of Clyde Pangborn and Hugh Herndon in the Miss Veedol. Discover how these two daredevil adventurers struggled against extreme adversity in their determination to be first to fly nonstop across the Pacific Ocean. This is a true story of two remarkable men caught between luck, war, and courage. Although these legendary flyers never received the universal acclaim of Charles Lindbergh, the communities of Misawa, Aomori prefecture, Japan and Wenatchee/East Wenatchee, Washington keep their story alive. In fact, the Spirit of Wenatchee project resulted in a resurgence of interest in Pang’s life and accomplishments. The History Channel produced a segment on the story in 2001; KSPS-TV produced a program entitled, “Upside Down Pangborn, First Across the Pacific;” and NHK, Japan’s public television organization produced a program that coincided with the grand opening of the museum in Misawa.
The Japan Science Foundation, the City of Misawa and Aomori prefecture built this museum in dedication to aviation with a replica of the Miss Veedol, constructed by Century Aviation of East Wenatchee, as the facility centerpiece. In conjunction, The Spirit of Wenatchee, an offshoot of the Experimental Aircraft Association chapter at Pangborn Memorial Airport in East Wenatchee, built another replica of Miss Veedol with plans to reenact the non-stop flight across the Pacific.
This revised edition of Pang was published to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the flight and to the salute the courageous pilots. Pang recounts the historic story from Mr. Lodato’s unique perspective. This publication, written by J. D. Lodato, himself a pilot and participant in the Spirit of Wenatchee project, has original illustrations by Charles Reasoner that are complimented with historical photos. One photo includes the crash-landing of Miss Veedol in Wenatchee, Washington after spending 41 hours, 13 minutes in flight. Discover why these two American pilots were grateful to finally depart from Sabishiro Beach, Japan after being detained nearly two months in Tokyo. Today, the memory of the flight is a warm tie between Washington and Japan.
