BWW Review: ASTORIA Brings the Founding of Oregon's Oldest City Vividly to Life, at Portland Center Stage
by Krista Garver - January 27, 2017
I read Peter Stark's Astoria last year on the suggestion of Portland Center Stage Artistic Director Chris Coleman.

He sent one party by land and another by sea to Astoria, Oregon, which became the first American settlement in the Pacific Northwest. The whole time I was reading, all I could think was, 'How did they make it?'
