Blanket Bill Jarman northwest Washington mystery man : first pioneer settler in Whatcom and Skagit counties by Percival Robert Jeffcott 
Published in 1958, Percival Robert Jeffcott's book is a biographical account of William Robert "Blanket Bill" Jarman, recognized as the first white pioneer to settle in Washington's Whatcom and Skagit counties. The work seeks to untangle the factual history of Jarman's frontier life from the dense web of myths, legends, and tall tales that had grown around him over the decades. By meticulously cross-referencing interviews and local lore with documentary evidence—such as Hudson's Bay Company records—Jeffcott systematically investigates and debunks several exaggerated stories, including a famous tale about Jarman being ransomed. Ultimately, the text serves as both a detailed character study of an elusive regional figure and a rigorous examination of early Pacific Northwest pioneer folklore. xii, 202 p. : ill. ; 24 cm.
