Harland Eastwood’s new book available

Local author Harland Eastwood has released a new book titled “Welcome to Ritzville” that follows the history of the town when Ritzville was the largest shipping point in the world. It also displays examples of the downtown business area, mainly during harvest season in the summer.

The book is a collection of historic photographs that document the growth of Ritzville while it was the breadbasket of the world. Many of the photographs inside of the book have never been published.
