In Wood Hicks and Bark Peelers, Ronald E. Ostman and Harry Littell
draw on the stunning documentary photography of William T. Clarke
to tell the story of Pennsylvania’s lumber heyday, a time when
loggers serving the needs of a rapidly growing and globalizing
country forever altered the dense forests of the state’s northern
tier. Discovered in a shed in upstate New York and a barn in
Pennsylvania after decades of obscurity, Clarke’s photographs
offer an unprecedented view of the logging, lumbering, and wood
industries during the late nineteenth and early twentieth
centuries. They show the great forests in the process of coming
down and the trains that hauled away the felled trees and trimmed
logs. And they show the workers—cruisers, jobbers, skidders,
teamsters, carpenters, swampers, wood hicks, and bark
peelers—their camps and workplaces, their families, their
communities. The work was demanding and dangerous; the work sites
and housing were unsanitary and unsavory. The changes the newly
industrialized logging business wrought were immensely important to
the nation’s growth at the same time that they were
fantastically—and tragically—transformative of the landscape.
An extraordinary look at a little-known photographer’s work and
the people and industry he documented, this book reveals, in sharp
detail, the history of the third phase of lumber in America.
