Nash","doi":"10.2307/4005157","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.2307/4005157","url":null,"abstract":"choose? Hardship? Only to softies. No one is really a mountaineer today until he has climbed Lizard Head in southwestern Colorado not because it is such a glorious mountain but because its rock is so rotten that the climber's life is constantly in danger. Two of our books deal with canoeing in arctic Canada. Hodgins and Hobbs edit a book of which half the chapters are written by persons who are or were connected with Trent University in Petersborough, Ontario, as are the editors. The time period covered-1837-1950-falls after the heyday of the fur traders and voyageurs and before the explosive growth of recreational canoeing during the past generation. Yetit tells many a dramatic story-the drama more gripping to me because the exposition is straightforward, not full of hype. The typeface chosen for this book is so small and the lines so close together that I had to use a magnifying glass for all of it, which makes for slow going. Nevertheless, Nastawgan's interesting accounts are worth the trouble. Eric Morse's memoirs reveal that although he had a good career as a professor, he lived for canoeing. For many years he studied old reports and maps, chose exciting but difficult routes for each year's expedition, and organized small parties with care and skill. He reports his groups' adventures in rapids, on portages, with weather, and perhaps above all with flies and mosquitoes. Although he acknowledges some hardships, he clearly thinks the rewards more than offset them. The author's wife accompanied him on these expeditions. Was she an equally devoted canoeist or primarily a devoted wife?From his writing he seems a rewarding person to know evenif one does not feelup to his trips. Schullery's American Fly Fishing: A History is intended primarily for other fly fishermen, but anyone can enjoy the book. He strives to be broad-minded and fair to all interests, but he concentrates on trout, with an occasional bow to bass, and he recognizes that fly fishing has a lot of snob appeal. He considers the social conditions, including popular attitudes toward fishing, of each era. He delves into the techniques of fly fishing in considerable detail. '~s we cast the By, we also angle, as Ken Cameron has said, in the past. Our fishing habits are the products of many centuries of sporting experience and thought\" (p.257). Webb considers the Green River, a tributary of the Colorado, focusing on the river above Jensen, Utah. His account is straightforward and he too lets the drama of the events speak for itself. Although river running has grown immensely popular and, because of new techniques (namely rubber rafts), much safer than it once was, the rapids still hold many thrills and much excitement.

Such a camp was \"pretty rugged;' recalls one logger. \"Where we slept . . . was one big old log cabin with about fifty men in it. There were two little windows near the roof you couldn't even see through. Youwere overcome with the odor of drying socks and crawled into bed with the bedbugs:'! But during the early decades of the twentieth century, living conditions for West Coast loggers improved markedly. Companies began to provide such amenities as housing for families, schools, and recreational facilities. When a reporter for the Timberman visited the Long-Bell Lumber Company's settlement at Ryderwood in 1924, he described it as \"a truly modern logging camp city\" featuring 242 homes, electric lights, a sewer system, and wide streets. \"Every feature of the town;' he enthused, \"bespeaks permanency, convenience and comfort'? Even after we take into account the bias of the writer, it is clear that Ryderwood and similar company-controlled communities represented a significant shift in the labor policies of coastal logging operators. The Canadian literature dealing with company towns or single-industry communities emphasizes the relationship of metropolis to hinterland, focusing on the interlocking roles of corporations, planners, and different levels of govemment.! In his study of company towns in the lumber","PeriodicalId":246151,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Forest History","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1989-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129152638","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
