This unique 'biography' encompasses a thousand years of the natural history and evolution of an old-growth forest in the western Cascade Mountains of Oregon. Called an "estimable piece of work" by the Boston Globe, Forest Primeval traces the life cycle of a forest from its fiery inception in the year 987 to the present day, when logging threatens the forest and its inhabitants.

"The interaction between the plant and animal world is intricately portrayed in Maser's expert depiction of the forest's amazing renewal, while current threats posed by the clear-cutting techniques of the timber industry end the book on a foreboding note."--ALA Booklist
Chris Maser spent over twenty-five years as a research scientist in natural history and ecology. He lives in Corvallis, Oregon, where he writes about and consults on sustainablity issues.
