Where Trees Touch the Sky

Where Trees Touch the Skyav Karen Barnett
Om Where Trees Touch the Sky

"In the early 1920s, the accelerating destruction of the California redwoods is more than nature-loving Marion Baker can bear. Throwing herself headlong into the work of the Save the Redwoods League, she's shocked to learn that Frank Duncan, a man she's grown to love, is actually the son of a greedy timber baron. Can she convince Frank to help her preserve a favorite grove of trees or will his influence force her to make a sacrifice she'll regret for the rest of her life? In 1972, polio-survivor June Turner is determined to prove herself worthy as a ranger at the new Redwood National Park. She takes inspiration from her Great Aunt Marion, who has become something of a reluctant celebrity for her activism. But when June and Adam Garner, an aspiring film student, work together on a documentary about Marion's life, they unearth a secret that might just shatter her aunt's legacy forever"--
