The golden spruce : a true story of myth, madness and greed

Vaillant, John (author.).

Summary: "A stark and hypnotic story about a maverick logger and an iconic 300-year-old tree on the Queen Charlotte Islands, The Golden Spruce is a multi-layered tale that both rebukes and questions Canada's management of its forests. Meditative and powerful, this book is both a mystery and a lament about greed and the Canadian character"--GG Awards site.
