Summary
The Hutton Settlement in Spokane, Washington, is a remarkable embodiment of philanthropy, altruism, and stewardship. L.W. Hutton built and endowed his home for children, orphaned or otherwise in need of a secure shelter, with wealth gleaned from the silver of Idaho's Coeur d'Alene mining district. Herein is a chronicle of that unique venture, beginning with the story of Levi Hutton, his rise to riches, and the construction of the home's impressive buildings and pastoral campus. It reflects eighty years of change in the theory and practice of child care and is based on the Settlement's official records as well as press accounts and interviews.
