Set on Bamfield's rugged west coast in the 1970s, Cedar, Salmon and Weed follows a young man who leaves a strict Dutch upbringing and becomes part of a community in flux. Fishermen, the Nuu-chah-nulth whaling clan, students and countercultural newcomers intersect as old livelihoods meet new pressures.

Gaz, a marine biologist, drifts into a laid-back life with friends Blay and Ben, trying small-scale marijuana cultivation and falling for Heidi, a Marine Station student. When outside interests, violence and a tragic murder arrive, friendships and loyalties are forced to shift.

Key themes

  • Coastal community and cultural encounter
  • Counterculture and 1970s social change
  • Crime, loyalty and moral ambiguity
  • Marine science and life on Vancouver Island

This seller was incredible. I purchased an inexpensive (used) book and was almost immediately notified that it shipped on the same day I ordered it. I received it within 2 days. It was exactly as described - it looked like it had never even been read! Great service & a great product. Thanks!
