Description
Book SynopsisA detailed account of the complex and contested process that resulted in the establishment of the Great Bear Rainforest in coastal British Columbia.
Trade ReviewThis is an extremely important book, not only for explaining how collaboration has been achieved at a regional scale in mid- and north BC, but also as a symbol and example of what is possible in seemingly intractable conservation “stand-offs.” It will repay study by students of environmental history and by all involved in that wide-reaching, all-encompassing field of environmental politics. -- Ken Atkinson, University of York St John * British Journal of Canadian Studies, Vol. 29 No. 1, Spring 2016 *
