Jack Nisbet is a teacher, naturalist, and writer who lives in Spokane, Washington. His latest book is The Collector: David Douglas and the Natural History of the Northwest.
Jack will be reading selected entries from the book, presenting a slideshow and signing copies at the Paulina Spring Bookstore in Sisters, Oregon on October 3rd.
“Jack Nisbet’s brisk, thrilling account allows us to walk, ride and paddle along with David Douglas, the tireless 19th-century Scotsman whose name is attached to Cascadia’s iconic fir. Nisbet takes us on the ultimate naturalist’s tour of a largely untamed, unnamed, and unknown Northwest, land of giant salmon, circling condors, and 14-inch pine cones. What nature-lover doesn’t wish they could see the region as it was when explorers first arrived? Well, here you go.”
–Knute Berger, author of Pugetopolis
