I lked this book learned how log booms are used. the techniques used to move logs downstream, reminds me of my early days in Oregon when logs were still driven to mills this way. This is a turn-of-the century (as in 19th to 20th century) book that wound up in my collection, then sat and waited quietly for me to find it. It tells the story of the men who worked the logs on the rivers, back when that was the main way to get lumber from the forests to the cities. The author writes the story as fiction but there is so much detail and knowledge that you immediately buy in to the main characters. Plus, there is a twist. A simple twist, yet one I did not expect. That kept me going as I hungrily ate it all up. Now, I can hold dinner conversations about the logging industry back in the late 19th century.
