Gifts for those who dream of a wilder life...
This is a list of books that would make a great gift for that person who dreams of a quieter life off-the-grid, off-shore, or on a ranch. From rural and wilderness regions of Canada's westernmost province. All of these books are published by Caitlin Press, the voice of rural British Columbia.
