Middle-aged Andy Bathgate clings to a precarious life in the logging town of Mantua, British Columbia. He fears the balance he currently enjoys — his relationship with a good woman, the uneasy truce with her eco-activist son, senior hockey with his friends — will come undone the moment the truth comes out: that he is not, in fact, Andy Bathgate. What he doesn't realize is that the people of his community aren't as clueless as he believes — and that honesty, decency, and fairness still have a place in the 21st century.
Written by award-winning non-fiction author Brian Fawcett, The Last of the Lumbermen weaves a story of modern small-town Canada in a voice seasoned with the wisdom and frankness of maturity.
