"The story of Whistler's development from backcountry fishing haven in 1914 to a world-class mountain resort in 2002 is a fascinating tale. It's also a great people story as Whistler's colorful characters have played a huge role in defining the Whistler style. With an easy-flowing grace (this work) captures all the passion, excitement and inspiration of these bigger-than-life personalities. Illustrated with mind-blowing action photos and amazing scenics of the spectacular surrounding mountains, this book is a story that's never been told about a place that defies easy description." - from dust jacket.
