About this audiobook
Julia 'Butterfly' Hill's remarkable and triumphant 738 day tree-sit atop the 1,000 year old, 200 foot tall redwood tree she named "Luna", ended December 18, 1999, when she negotiated a deal to save the ancient tree with Pacific Lumber, a division of the Maxxam Corporation, who owns the land on which "Luna" stands. Hill's exuberant and life-affirming spirit along with her fierce dedication to "Luna" and the eco-system are empowering and energizing, reminding us all what life and love are all about.
