This book describes the work of loggers in the American Northwest at the beginning of the 19th century. Darius Kinsey’s spectacular photos show the felling of giant trees with handsaws and the transport and further processing of the logs. An unflinching portrayal of both the harsh realities faced by the loggers and the start of the decimation of the majestic North American rainforests by successive advancements in logging technology.
