Chasing Clayoquot: A Wilderness Almanac - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

<div>In the manner of Thoreau, naturalist David Pitt-Brooke meditates on one of Earth&#8217;s last untouched places &#151; Vancouver Island&#8217;s fabled Clayoquot Sound. This area came to prominence during &#147;Clayoquot Summer,&#8221; a 1993 protest that resulted in 800 arrests but also halted the region's destruction by logging. Clayoquot Sound encompasses every imaginable landscape, from alpine tundra to old-growth temperate rain forest. Like Barry Lopez did with the north in <i>Arctic Dreams,</i> Pitt-Brooke approaches this wild, magical place by taking readers on an unforgettable journey for each month of the year. <i>Chasing Clayoquot</i> is a profound &#151; and political &#151; trip through an extraordinary environment.</div>
