Rite Of Passage: A Photographic Introspective of the Canadian Tree Planting Industry


Overview

Tree Planting is often described as a Canadian ""rite of passage"" for youth in their early twenties. While that may be somewhat of a glorification, there's no debating the fact that more than ten thousand Canadians plant trees each year as a summer job, and well over a hundred thousand have done it at some point in their lives. This book is a photo odyssey that examines the industry from within, from the perspective of planters who are working in remote tent camps. Although the focus of the book is to share a visual representation of planting life and culture rather than one based on essays, a picture is worth a thousand words. Written by the administrator of the highly popular Replant.ca website, this book will show you why, even though most planters hate planting, many remember their summers in the bush as some of the most interesting times of their lives.
