  • Tioga's Pigs, by E.A. Krewson, 1955.
    E.A. Krewson has spent his life following the streams and climbing the mountains of Coos and Curry counties. He has seen hinterlands become civilized--but he knows where the country is unchanged. What he has found in his wanderings he put into this story, and thus preserved a section of this historic Northwest in some of the most charming, authentic nature prose ever assembled by a woodsman with literary "know-how". The book focuses for most of the story on Brewster Valley, now Sitkum, from the 1850's until about 1910.
