Description: Knute "Skip" Berger's trenchant commentaries in his "Mossback" column for Seattle Weekly, and now Crosscut.com, have made him one of the most popular and prickly figures in Seattle journalism. This book collects the best of those columns on politics, culture, enterprise, and odd local behavior. For anyone who wants to understand the Pacific Northwest through the gimlet eye of Seattle's own "crank with a conscience," this is a must-read.
