FreeAuthor Talk with Jerry Sutherland on, “Bayocean: Atlantis of Oregon”
Event Navigation
On Saturday, November 9th, 2024 the Friends of the Seaside Public Library will welcome author Jerry Sutherland for a talk on his book, “Bayocean: Atlantis of Oregon.” The event will take place at 2:00 p.m. in the Community Room and there will be a time afterwards for a Q&A.
In 1906, big dreams and the quest for a West Coast resort led to the creation and eventual doom of a community built on the four-mile-long spit that protects Tillamook Bay from the Pacific Ocean. Hear from author Jerry Sutherland on his latest book which chronicles the half-century the Oregon resort town existed, tells the stories of the people involved, and explains its financial and physical demise.
After hiking the area and discovering what lay hidden beneath his feet, Jerry Sutherland meticulously researched and documented Bayocean. Eight years of research has made him an expert on this vanished city. His book, “Bayocean: Atlantis of Oregon” is more than a history, it is the biography of a time and place, as well as the people who built it and Oregon.
1131 Broadway St, Seaside, OR 97138.
