TIMBERMAN Ian Ridgway has expertly dovetailed family and personal history with factual events, true stories and bushmen's tales in the Red Cedar - Red Gold trilogy.
The last days of cedar-getting on the NSW coast from the 1920s to the late '40s was a time of finding and retrieving the last of the forest giants hidden in remote fog-shrouded valleys where courage and daring were just as important as axe and cross-cut saw.
With a descriptive text and enthralling storyline, the books are guaranteed to capture the imagination and take you back to another place and time when red cedar was worth as much as gold and the last of the true pioneers carved civilisation from the wilderness.
