Description
Christine Lakin’s enthusiasm and authenticity lure the listener into Leila Philip’s world of beavers. Host Jo Reed and AudioFile’s Alan Minskoff discuss this homage to the ingenuity and group intelligence of these remarkable dam builders and water capturers. Philip casts a wide net as she delves into the cultural significance of beavers to some North American tribes, stresses how vitally important beaver dams are to clean water, and accompanies trappers, goes to fur auctions, and skins a pelt herself. Lakin captures the respect and empathy Philip has for trappers, traders, and environmentalists alike, and portrays the lighter moments as well.
