About the Book
One man's story about living in a remote community in northern Canada in the 70's. The story takes place in a small community along the Fraser River. There was no road into the community and access was only by walking along the railroad tracks or by boating up the river. The river became the main access and accounted for many adventures over the years. Life in Longstock was a throw back to older times combined with the lifestyle of the more recent hippie days. The story chronicles the ups and downs of living off the grid in northern Canada and the people who lived there.
