Eugeneana: Memoir of an Oregon Hometown
Ash takes you on a journey through post-WWII Eugene , her hometown, sharing her reflections on special places, people, and events from her childhood.
“Lynn Ash deftly writes of growing up in Eugene in a book that twines history, nostalgia and the inevitable changing of life’s season. It’s a celebration of time and place by a native daughter who noticed all the delicious-and sometimes painful-details of growing up in a city like no other.”
Bob Welch, author of Cascade Summer: My Adventure on Oregon’s Pacific Crest Trail
“Ash’s account of The Whit, my neighborhood, is personal and informative, full of memories of what has become the hippest part of town.”
Kitty Piercy, former mayor of Eugene
“Lynn Ash has written a tantalizing tale of growing up in Eugene. Her early U of O basketball reflections will make you feel like you were there with her in Mac Court.”
Don Essig, Duck PA announcer, 1967 to present
“The book will definitely speak to people of Eugene, those who share the city’s history, as well as newcomers who want to know more."
