pp. 454. “while this book is not an expose of government or industry policies, it builds up a case that together capital and the provincial state created a vulnerable hinterland economy on the base of a rich but limited resource. Based on data from governmental and non-government documents and reports and on interviews with industry officials and workers, [this book] makes a significant contribution to our knowledge of single-industry towns, the sociology of work, and the sociology of women in Canada. Offers substantial material on the forestry industry of British Columbia which can be adapted to similar regions and other resource-based industries.”
