The Last Forest

THE LAST FOREST will take you back in time to the 1880's, to the unspoiled West Virginia wilderness. G. D. (Douglas) McNeill's collection of stories begins with the forest primeval, before the railroads & loggers disturbed the tranquility of centuries. It ends fifty years later, with the last virgin forest cut over & despoiled. Anyone who loves good writing & a well-told tale will enjoy THE LAST FOREST. Through its pages fishermen, hunters & hikers can imagine the hardwood forests of the Allegheny Mountains a hundred years ago, then retrace the sorry history of their exploitation & destruction. Much of the book's action takes place along the Cranberry & Williams rivers, an area now protected as federally designated wilderness area. THE LAKE FOREST was written in the 1930's & has been out of print for half a century. (Reprinted 1990,1999).
