By Carrie Saxifrage| AudioFile Magazine Verified The author is a good narrator of her own work. Saxifrage lives on an out-of-the-way island off the coast of British Columbia, where she raises her son, grows organic food, swims miles in icy water, and works to promote sustainable logging and to build understanding among her logger and First Nations neighbors. Her life was full of challenges (and pleasures) before concerns about climate change took center stage.

Clayoquot saw more than 900 arrested. The latest count at Fairy Creek is 824.
