Logger protests. Dying timber towns. An iconic species on the brink.

The Northwest Forest Plan was the result.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor most of the twentieth century, the central theme of federal forest management in the Pacific Northwest had been logging old-growth forests to provide a sustained yield of timber. During the 1970s and 1980s, however, studies by young scientists highlighted the destructive impact of that logging on northern spotted owls, salmon, and the old-growth ecosystem itself. Combining this new science with environmental laws like the Endangered Species Act, environmental activists obtained court injunctions to stop old-growth logging on federal land, setting off a titanic struggle to meet conservation imperatives while also enabling the timber harvests that provided employment for tens of thousands of people. That effort led to the creation of the Northwest Forest Plan, which sharply and abruptly shifted the goal of federal forest management toward conserving the species and ecosystems of old-growth forests and the streams that run through them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn this book, three of the scientists who helped craft that change tell the story as they know it: the causes, development, adoption, and effects of the Northwest Forest Plan.

Legal expert Susan Jane M. Brown helped interpret court cases and Debora Johnson turned spatial data into maps.

Through outstanding photographs, Ralph Andrews presents 239 different views of redwood trees three thousand years old on average at various stages of use. Straight, elegant trees are so wide 20 men touching fingers-to-fingers can stand around the trunk. These trees were used to build lumbering empires, and they kept thousands employed. Many of the lumbermen themselves are quoted in memories of their work on the old trees--hardships, inventions, earthquakes and fires, sawmills, logging camps and shipping are remembered.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"a-section a-spacing-small a-padding-small\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFrom his home in Seattle, Ralph Andrews has written many books to document American Northwest logging and its people.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Schiffer Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45865237578038,"sku":"9780887400490","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0745\/2301\/7526\/files\/71-8hzcK1RL._SL1098.jpg?v=1785979109"},{"product_id":"rees-and-shrubs-of-the-pacific-northwest-timber-press-field-guide","title":"Trees and Shrubs of the Pacific Northwest","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eIdeal for hikers, foragers, and plant lovers, the Timber Press Field Guides are the perfect tools for loving where you live.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eTrees and Shrubs of the Pacific Northwest \u003c\/i\u003eis a comprehensive field guide to commonly found woody plants in the region.
