PETER ROWLANDS * Home * Blog -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Through travels on the river and debates in the boardroom I learned much about myself and about the world I live in ... I hope river lovers, history buffs, and the environmentally conscious all find some pleasure in the telling." September 1979. When thirty-something Peter Rowlands loaded up his Landcruiser and took canoe "Dimples" on a paddling adventure in northern BC’s backcountry, he never expected one river—Stikine—would radically change the course of his life. Rowlands became so enchanted by this 640-kilometre stretch of wild beauty, he joined the ranks of citizens calling for protection of the Stikine River, its watershed, and its Indigenous communities. Facing layers of bureaucracy and the cavernous pockets of big business, Rowlands found himself tangled in a multi-decade morass, where money always seemed to eclipse mother nature. Written to highlight the importance of heathy ecosystems and stressing the importance of fresh water to global health, Stikine Odyssey exposes questionable relationships between government and industry in hopes of furthering awareness and encouraging improvement. Stikine Odyssey: From Adventure to Activism with The Great River is a story of complexity, evolution, and staggering beauty, much like the river itself. The text is breathtaking in its minute detail, and the academic rigor plus the lyrical quality of descriptive writing converge into a fascinating reading experience. Beautifully illustrated with grayscale photos by Gary Fiegehen, the utility of Rowlands' text is also enhanced by maps, endnotes, and a photo index. A complex historical and ecological story of the Stikine watershed, Rowlands' book is a must read for lovers of the outdoors. RECOMMENDED by the US Review.

Until his passing, Gary lived in Vancouver with his partner Sara.
