"The Pacific Rim region of Vancouver Island - including the Clayoquot wilderness, Long Beach, Barkley Sound and the communities of Tofino, Ucluelet and Port Alberni - has become one of western Canada's prime tourist destinations, drawing over a million visitors a year." "This photographic study of the region will go far toward revealing its legendary charms both to actual visitors and armchair travellers. Author Jacqueline Windh has spent ten years photographing the Clayoquot-Pacific Rim area in all its seasons and moods, studying its history and getting to know its people. In The Wild Edge: Clayoquot, Long Beach & Barkley Sound, she shares her findings in images and words, supplementing her unforgettable scenic photographs with a light-hearted but informative text that blends history and science with essential visitor guidance."--BOOK JACKET
