Islands in the Salish Sea: A Community Atlas

Gorgeous, fascinating and unconventional, the maps in this collection show aspects of the Gulf Islands, the "Islands in the Salish Sea," that are most beloved by the residents, from heritage orchards, fishing spots and patches of endangered wild orchids to ancient First Nations' sites and bird colonies. The community on each island decided what elements should be depicted, and local artists then created each of the magnificent and wildly different maps. This volume is a treasure-trove of cherished information that could have been lost, presented with imagination and great beauty.
