Local history researchers have told the stories of many of Lewis County’s families and communities, but until the summer of 2007 there was not a thorough, overall history of the county. Then came the publication of "The Land Called Lewis", a panoramic view of the county’s history from the days of the Cowlitz and Chehalis tribes to the modern era. Written by author Sandra A. Crowell, former Centralia College Instructor and Director of Literacy, this book provides a context for Lewis County history studies, offering a sweeping view of events that have shaped the area into what it is today.
