Synopses & ReviewsBook News Annotation:Subtitled Essays and Photographs on Clearcutting, and characterized by the publisher as an "antidote to the heated rhetoric that surrounds this debate." It sounds to us like a sermon (with brimstone) and is, itself, decidedly opposed to the practice of raping great patches of forest.
