Written by Garry Kerr and Harry McDermott, the Huon Pine Story is written in a narrative style full of interviews with old timers and gives an insight into the men and their families who cut and harvested these giants of the Tasmanian forest. The book demonstrates many of the uses and art forms of this great natural resource and helps to forge an understanding of the issues of resource sustainability and environmental management.
