New oblong hardcover in new dust jacket; book is still sealed in publisher’s original, unopened shrink wrap; 149 pages with bibliography; profusely illustrated with color photographs. "Picking up where John McPhee’s ‘The Pine Barrens,’ left off, [author and nature photographer Bob] Birdsall’s perceptive lens and engaging text illumine close to three dozen individuals and their ways of life- many of which are fast vanishing. With roots in the Pines going back 200 years or more, many are deeply committed to preserving tradition, while others are relative newcomers who came to visit and stayed to fight for the future of a wilderness at risk. What the ‘People of the Pines’ share in common, is a boundless passion for this unique and storied land" (quoted material from jacket flap). A beautiful portrait of the Pines and its people.
