I'm only 1/2 way through "The Golden Spruce," but so far... it's difficult to put down! Fascinating history of the area in pre-colonial times, through colonization, with special attention paid to sharing the Indigenous story. The modern part of the story is just beginning at this stage but it's been interesting to read about the dual feelings many in the logging community had about making a paycheck versus respecting the land in the 70s, 80s, and 90s.

The Golden Spruce is part of my life as a Lo...gger then Forester. I will share it with my family in the timber industry. All the Earth First environmentalists should read this!
