Summary:
"Twenty years ago, two empty-nesters with a love of the outdoors stumbled upon a vacant beach house on a small island in
Clayoquot
Sound
, part of an off-grid, ten-acre stretch nestled within a provincial park reserve. '
Escape
to
Clayoquot
Sound
' is an extended love letter to this
place
, chronicling the decade John and Bea Dowd spent as year-round caretakers of the property. Told with humour, heart, and illustrated with stunning natural photography, this is a story of joyful solitude, of living in harmony with wildlife and respecting the forces of nature. It is about the fleeting definition of
home
and family, and about creating community in the wilderness. Above all, it is a tribute to an achingly beautiful, fragile
place
."-- Back cover.
