In the manner of Thoreau, naturalist David Pitt-Brooke meditates on
one of Earth's last untouched places - Vancouver Island's fabled
Clayoquot Sound. This area came to prominence during Clayoquot
Summer, 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
Arctic Dreams, Pitt-Brooke approaches this wild, magical place by
taking readers on an unforgettable journey for each month of the
year. Chasing Clayoquot is a profound - and political - trip
through an extraordinary environment.
