Ground-Truthing

Reimagining the Indigenous Rainforests of BC's North Coast

by Derrick Stacey Denholm

tagged: essays, indigenous studies, forests & rainforests
Description

Derrick Stacey Denholm has spent twenty-five years as a forestry field worker, planting trees, marking cutblock boundaries and timber-cruising. In Ground-Truthing, he combines this experience with his perspective as a poet and artist to guide us through the tangle of social, ecological and economic slash piles that dominate BC’s North Coast. Scientists, poets, loggers, activists, mushroom hunters–Ground-Truthing explores this diverse terrain of communities and cultures in its search for an answer to one of our most urgent questions: How can we work productively and participate ethically in a life that maintains respect for the wild, not only in the rain-soaked forests of BC’s North Coast, but everywhere?

Editorial Review

While emphasizing the ‘local, wild, and Indigenous,’ Denholm’s work is planetary in its scope—a book that will be read and studied widely.
