Author Talk: Voices for the Islands

Author Talk: Voices for the Islands

With Bowen Island Library and Bowen Island Conservancy

“Join Sheila Harrington…as she shares some of the stories found in Voices for the Islands: Thirty Years of Nature Conservation on the Salish Sea.

Published by Heritage House, Sheila's new book chronicles the three-decade legacy of passionate Salish Sea island residents who have dedicated much of their lives to protecting nature in determined, creative ways.

Taste some of the delights of her inspiring sailing journey as Sheila meets with the dedicated founders and current activists from seventeen of the islands in the Salish Sea who have doggedly protected hundreds of nature reserves, parks and protected places for people and the unique wildlife we share these precious islands with.

Voices for the Islands is a tribute to local conservationists-past and present-detailing their outstanding legacy, along with the methods and legal tools that offer waypoints for the future in these challenging times.”
