It extends over a period of about forty years, from 1854 to 1895, giving a complete record of the tep in the growth of the shipbuilding indu try, as well as gi ing an account of the few earlier vessels which are to be re­ memberd for their historical value. In the preface it i announced their aim i to give the marine history, and that only; for it has been omitted from the other histories of the orthwe t. To do thi , year by year, giving the names and descriptions of the ve sels built and the names and activities of the most important men concerned in the various enterprise was obviously a tremendou undertaking. But the finished book does not pre~ent the purely stati tical aspect which we would expect of one founded so largely upon stat­ i tics. It is accurate and well arranged, with the same general out­ line for the treatment of each year; important ve els, teamers, sailing vessels, important men, and marine disasters. But it is written so as to avoid undue repetition and anything which might make it dry reading. Because it is so inclusive it has semed the mo t reliable source from which to draw up a chronological table of ships built on the coast. This table i intended to how the relative importance of different localities in marine hi tory, and the rise and fall of the manufacture of steam and sailing ve els in each locality. Wherever possible the cla sification ha been re­ duced to simply "steam" and "sail," for uniformity's sake and to avoid confusion. Only coastbuilt vesels have been tabulated, though the history covers a great many of the river boat in the earlier time. For drawing general compari ons and di covering the gen­ eral trend of development of the indu try, the table ought to be useful. But for the real interest that centers around Port Lud­ low and Port Blakely, eattle, and Tacoma and Portland, and all the little harbors where marine activitie gre\ and died and grew again, one must read some of the chapter from the hi tor it elf.

The tour ends at the Fairhaven Village Green, Site #20. Things to consider when walking: • Wear comfortable shoes and watch where you step! • Always use crosswalks and be alert when crossing streets. • Take breaks as needed. Visit one of the many cafes and retail shops along the tour, stop by the library or have a picnic at the Fairhaven Village Green. FAIRHAVEN HISTORIC WALKING TOUR This photo-rich tour book gives a glimpse into Fairhaven’s past, showing how it has evolved over time. Settled in 1853, Fairhaven was one of four early towns that consolidated in 1904 to create the City of Bellingham. In the late 19th century Fairhaven experienced a series of booms and busts, in part due to anticipation by real estate investors who were led to believe that the town would become the terminus of the Great Northern Railroad.
