Blood
by Geoff golden
February 1999, 1st edition, Paperback, 300 pages,
(fiction)
The author is a former woodsman, environmentalist, and
County Commissioner in the heart of spotted owl country. His contemporary historical
novel set in Oregon, shows it isn't always clear who to name as the "good guys"
and the "bad guys", while he lays bare the "corporate welfare program"
that all but destroyed the Northwest's forests. A very readable way to get an
insight into issues faced by the "timber country" of the Northwest.
