Résumé
Prince George, a once-thriving city of 80,000 in British Columbia, has experienced an accelerating virtual clearcut that has undermined its economic and social culture over the past 40 years. In four carefully drawn portraits of the city sketched over a… decade, the author, who grew up there and has tracked its steady decline, shows that in the face of globalization Prince George has lost its ability to control its own destiny, and is losing its will to care. 2003.
