"This is a fascinating book about the discovery of old-growth trees where they were least expected."--Gloria Hildebrandt "Escarpment Views " "The Last Stand is a beautiful book, shot through with full colour, striking photographs of cliffs, cedars and those who descover them. It's an adventure story, a lesson in ecology and a close up look at the cliffs that surround us every day. After reading it, you will never again take that rampart of rock for granted."--Andrew Armitage "Owen Sound Sun Times " "I thoroughly enjoyed this book.
