Memories of Cowichan Lake : A Life at Greendale, Paperback / softback Book

Memories of Cowichan Lake : A Life at Greendale Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Trevor Green spent his long life beside the Cowichan River. Born in 1912, he lived at Greendale, his family's homestead just east of the village of Lake Cowichan on Vancouver Island. The location seemed enchanted, offering enormous scope for an imaginative boy to dream and grow. He became a man who loved to watch life's passing parade, writing a daily journal and many stories about the people and events he saw - over more than nine decades - as the heritage river flowed by his front door. History takes on a comfortable familiarity in the hands of this good-humoured but sharp-eyed observer. All the telling details that make small town life a joy can be found in his work, including many unique characters and their struggles to deal with progress as a new century rushed towards them.
