All are welcome to attend distinguished historian and award-winning author Peter Boag’s discussion of his book project The Art of Mountaineering tomorrow (Wednesday) at 7 p.m. in Hoover 105.

Through romantic images and captivating stories, Boag, professor of history at Washington State University, guides us on a journey back into the 19th century to learn about the central role that fine artists and popular illustrators of the Cascade Range played in promoting mountaineering, founding climbing organizations, supporting conservation efforts, and stimulating a fascination with the mountains of our region.
