The Legacy of Luna : The Story of a Tree a Woman and the Struggle to Save the Redwoods
San Francisco CA U.S.A.: HarperSanFrancisco 2000. 257 Pages. Dust jacket price $25 is unclipped. Gift quality. In December 1999 Julia Butterfly Hill's feet touched the ground for the first time in over two years as she descended from Luna a thousand-year-old redwood in Humboldt County California. Hill had climbed 180 feet up into the tree high on a mountain in December 1997 for what she thought would be a two to three week tree-sit. The action was intended to stop Pacific Lumber a division of the Maxxam Corporation from the environmentally destructive process of clear-cutting the ancient redwoood and the trees around it. The area immediately next to Luna had already been strippe and because as many believed nothing was left to hold the soil to the mountain a huge part of the hill had slid into the town of Stafford wiping ot many homes. Over the course of what turned into an historic civil action Hill endured El Nino storms helicopter harassment a ten-day siege by company security guards and the tremendous sorrow brought about by an old-growth forest's destruction. This story was written while she lived in the tree.
