Bella Coola
Bella Coola is a name that became familiar to millions recently thanks to a worldwide campaign to protect vast tracts of the region's rainforest and grizzly bear habitat under the banner of the Great Bear Rainforest, but despite the attention it has received, the area remains enigmatic to much of the outside world. In this magnificently illustrated book, long-time Bella Coola residents Hans Granander and Michael Wigle explore both the human settlements of Bella Coola country and the awe-inspiring wilderness that encircles them. Between the sea and mountains of British Columbia's Central Coast, fog shrouds 2.7 million hectares of largely old-growth forest, including a protected area twice the size of Yellowstone Park that harbours Canada's largest grizzly bears. The authors' brilliant images of the region's spectacular scenery and abundant wildlife show why it has been a magnet for world-class adventurers like Thor Heyerdahl and Sir Edmund Hillary for over a century.
Aboriginal Peoples and Forest Lands in Canada
Aboriginal people in Canada have long struggled to regain control over their traditional forest lands. Aboriginal Peoples and Forest Lands in Canada brings together the diverse perspectives of Aboriginals and non-Aboriginals to address the political, cultural, environmental, and economic implications of forest use. This book discusses the need for professionals working in forestry and conservation to understand the context of Aboriginal participation in resource management. It also addresses the importance of researching traditional knowledge and traditional land use and examines the development of co-management initiatives and joint ventures between government, forestry companies, and Aboriginal communities.
