The Golden Spruce: A True Story of Myth, Madness, and Greed

The Golden Spruce: A Tale of Obsession and Sacrifice in the Last Great Forest is a gripping and thought-provoking book that delves into the heart of North America's last great forest, where trees grow to eighteen feet in diameter and sunlight never touches the ground.

Author John Vaillant recounts the bloody history of the Haida tribe and the early fur trade, while providing harrowing details of the logging industry that would claim both a man and the unique Sitka spruce he so fiercely loved.

This book is a must-read for anyone who has ever felt passionately about a cause, as it highlights the extreme measures one man was willing to take to protect the natural beauty of our world.
