| 520 | |a This book of personal stories recounts a forgotten Oregon river, the Willamette, as it was before white settlement. Once a rich network of channels and sloughs, the Willamette of the twenty-first century bears the scars of development and degradation. Yet, through canoe trips and intimate explorations of the river, the author discovers glints of resiliency: a beaver trolling through a slough, native fish in quiet backwaters, and strong currents that carry undertones of the wild Willamette. Together with tales from farmers and scientists alike, these experiences lead the author to ask whether something scarred can fully heal, and whether a disjointed river can be whole again. | ||
