Book launch June 27, 2026 for Shoreline History book by Victoria Stiles

Join the Shoreline Historical Museum for a special release launch for SHM's newest book from our Director Emeritus, Vicki Stiles! 

Vicki Stiles was the executive director of the Shoreline Historical Museum from 1992 until she retired in 2022 after 29 years.

Through her efforts, the Museum became a publishing house, producing several books, including the 1926 memoir of Judge James T. Ronald and the History of the Shoreline School District - 75th Anniversary.

She made numerous presentations to local groups about specific points in the history of the area. 

75 years of schools in Shoreline. History of Lake Forest Park. History of specific neighborhoods like Hillwood and Echo Lake. Pioneer women in Richmond Beach, History of Commerce in Shoreline, Impact of Women in King County, 

Now she is publishing a book on the history of Shoreline on its 30th year.

In recognition of Shoreline’s long history, city of Shoreline’s 30th anniversary, and SHM's 50th Birthday, we offer this volume. It has been thirty years in the making and includes many historic photos that have never been seen outside the museum.
