Heart and Soul

"People Of The Tongass" presents a compelling history of the battle for the heart and soul of, Tongass National Forest, in Southeastern Alaska. The authors derive their living from the great, temperate rain forest, thus; a pro-forestry bias. It seems Consanguineous to the bias one has for a wood framed house over one of plastered straw. Beset by litigious 'outsiders' and Washington 'insiders' the forestry workers depicted in "People Of TheTongass", nonetheless, emerge as a wholly desirable -if uncertain- component for the continued health and prosperity of the region.
