Legacy in Wood – The Wahl Family Boat builders


By Ryan Wahl

2008 Harbour Publishing

9781550174335


Not often a reviewer is in a book he or she is reviewing - the passage on the theft of the fishing vessel “Spirit of BC.” For that was me that tracked what turned out to be the incorrect vessel on radar while employed at the Canadian Coast Guard.
Author Ryan Wahl has truly put out what should be considered a labor of love as opposed to most books. His work traces his family’s wood boatbuilding efforts over multiple generations on the coast of British Columbia.
The book was a treat to read and is highly recommended.
