Fascinating and thorough look at the redwood logging industry, from the earliest days of individual wildcatters whose employees felled the trees with axes through the days of well-funded capitalists whose employees used chain saws, steam donkeys, high leads and tractors and then to corporations whose employees are attempting to revive the industry through genetic research and reforestation. Illustrated throughout with black and white photos and numerous maps. Includes bibliography. Decorative end papers show map of the Redwood Empire in northern California. 218 pages wth index.
