Lumbering in Nova Scotia has a long and storied history, dating back nearly for centuries. A rich resource and lose to world markets, lumbering has played an important role in the development of the province, employing thousands of men and woman over the years. This oral history, covering a 30-year period from the 1920s to the 1940s, captures the personal experiences of those choppers, scalers, sawyers, yarders, mill hands and cooks who were part of this rugged experience.
