I met both Carol Van Strum and Paul Merrell years ago, have read her book several times, and admire both of them for the incredible courage they have displayed in both the fight against the poisoning of our children, forests and streams and in fighting for the rights of the veterans exposed to Agent Orange. They are incredibly dedicated people and I have always been convinced that the loss of her children in that house fire was a warning to her to back away from her fight against the Forest Service and corporations. These fights took place while you were very young, but the same spraying poisoned the Siletz area, made people and animals sick and destroyed the birds. The forests have been so quiet since those days.Grace Elting Okessonhttp://fortheloveoffamilyhistory.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.com
