Excerpt from Woman's Journeyings in the New Northwest In placing this simple and hastily written account of personal experience before the public, I wish to say that I am not unmindful of the fact that the haps and mishaps falling to the lot of an individual are not supposed to possess a high degree of interest for the world at large; but having read many scholarly dissertations on the West, and ostensibly graphic descriptions of Western life, without having received other than a vague impression much of which was erroneous and quickly vanished upon personal observation, I have taken the liberty of presuming that there are others under like impressions, and that to such, a plain statement of actual occurrences, while possessing no great merit, may be helpful in some small particular. As a consequence, I have endeavored to narrate lucidly what I saw, what I heard and the impressions I received; which has necessitated a relation of what I did, and what I said.

This book examines interpersonal violence in Washington, Oregon, and British Columbia beginning with Native American cultures before colonization and continuing into the mid-twentieth centuries. Rather than riots or lynchings, it is concerned with more prosaic acts of physical force--a husband slapping his wife, a parent taking a birch branch to a child, a pair of drunken friends squaring off to establish who was the “better man.” Del Mar accounts for the social relations of power that lie behind this intimate form of violence.
