Reviews

"David Nash artfully, poignantly reimagines Paul Bunyan, breathing new life into the legendary lumberjack with an affecting story anchored in a clear understanding of old time woods work, while aptly engaging contemporary ecological concerns." -James P. Leary, Emeritus Professor of Folklore, University of Wisconsin-Madison
