San Juan Island’s history, with its unexplained stories

Joseph Reigel pairs familiar landmarks in San Juan Island’s past—including the Pig War and Roche Harbor—with stories that sit outside the usual historical account. The book gathers articles, first-hand accounts, and period photographs to document local tales such as the Cry Baby House and reports of a sasquatch beneath the woods around Cady Mountain. Its subject is the island’s overlap between recorded history and campfire lore, presented as a distinct strand of San Juan’s past rather than a conventional travel guide.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers interested in San Juan Island history and local lore
  • Those drawn to haunted places and unexplained stories
  • Travel readers curious about the island’s less familiar accounts

Book overview

Few places could hope to rival the rich history of Washington's San Juan Island. From the famed Pig War to the secretive "kingdom" at Roche Harbor, the island has played host to countless remarkable stories. Like any other historical place, however, there are some tales that the textbooks tend to omit; tales like the terrifying "Cry Baby House," or the subterranean sasquatch said to stalk the woods around Cady Mountain. With the aid of articles, first-hand accounts, and period photographs, Mysterious San Juan Island attempts to document this strange side of San Juan history-and to ensure that the island's campfire stories remain suitably spooky for years to come.
