When hard work, danger & hardship meant worthy skills, fearlessness, & great friendships. River Drivers moved the timber from forest to the sea & sawmills along the way! Just a few years back I brought my visiting mother to the River Drivers’ reunion day at the Dead River Historical Society in Stratton where I shot these interviews on the spur of the moment because I had the camera in the car & pulled it out to record the tales being told by these amazing men of a generation gone by.
