Most people living in the Northwest are at least somewhat familiar with the infamous Timber Wars. But the history of the Timber Wars is far more complex and dynamic than we are led to believe.
There was strife and a clashing of cultures, of course. But there is also a rich history of collaboration between the timber industry, conservationists, and government entities like the Forest Service.
Join us as Zach Hadagone, Editor of The Reader walks us through the lead-up to the Timber Wars. This is the second episode in a three-part series. So stay tuned for more! -
