Follow the history of logging as it unfolds across the United
States, from the virgin forests of the east, to the towering
redwoods of the West Coast. Historic photography, much of it
beautifully hand tinted, captures images of the early woods, the
woodsman, and the machines of this important industry. From its
earliest days, logging was grueling work done in the isolation of
virgin forests. Men worked and lived in rugged environments to
provide the basic material with which to build a nation. This book
illustrates their lives with over 350 historic postcard images
taken from the early 1900s through the first half of the twentieth
century. Stroll through stunning pictures of logging's history,
from the massive trees and forests, axes, saws, lumber camps,
donkey engines, and river floats to the oxen, horses, trains,
trucks, and sawmills. See the massive machinery that transformed
the lumber industry in the twentieth century.
