Soul of the city the Pike Place Public Market


Title Cover Image: Soul of the city

Pike Place Market is a space that annually draws more people than any of the city's major sporting and cultural events. It has a reputation among American markets that is comparable to Les Halles in Paris and Convent Garden in London - the difference being that it has survived. This book illustrates the many people who have fought to sustain it.
