The fabled Great Bear Rainforest stretches up the rugged Pacific coast from northern Vancouver Island to southern Alaska. A longtime resident, Ian McAllister offers a personal account rich with full-color photographs of the wolves, whales, and other creatures who make the rainforest their home—including a glimpse of 27 bears fishing for salmon, three of which are the famed pure-white spirit bear. McAllister also introduces the First Nations people who have lived in this area for millennia, and the scientists racing against time to protect the rainforest.
