My grandfather originally wrote this book primarily as a memoir of the family's experiences in the Canadian backwoods in the years immediately after World War II. But it is also a diary of a pocket of wilderness that, having mostly recovered its essential nature from the ravages of the turn-of-the-century timber boom, would then become the epicenter of 1950's uranium development (driven by Cold War imperatives) in the region around Elliot and Quirke Lakes.
