Summary:

"Remarkable characters from Clayoquot Sound jostle for attention in Voices from the Sound. Storekeepers and sealers, prospectors and priests, schoolchildren, settlers and native people - in the early decades of the twentieth century, their lives intersected in the small world and vast distances of Vancouver Island's remote west coast. Now the voices of these people can be heard once again, in chatty and revealing detail. They come alive, just as cantankerous or eccentric, pitiable or brave as they were in their own lifetimes
