This book is one man's memorial to the magnificent natural redwood Sequoia trees in California which today number only a fraction of the groves of 125 years ago. These trees, once used to build lumbering empires, kept thousands employed in their destruction. Many of the lumbermen themselves are quoted in memories of their work on old trees-hardships, inventions, earthquakes, fires, sawmills, logging camps and shipping are remembered. With over 239 haunting photographs, this book is a testament to the hard work that men and women required logging these natural giants.
