associations between Let No One Enter and Redwoods

Glenn A. Reed wrote this novel in California’s Sierra Nevada, home to Giant Sequoia (Sequoiadendron giganteum). The book sprung from his experiences teaching high school in Fort Bragg, California, home to Coast Redwoods (Sequoia sempervirens). 

Readers of  Let No One Enter know that the book’s setting and some of its art include Coast Redwoods. Curious to know a little about the work of Save the Redwoods League in that setting’s vicinity?

Here’s just one example. Read about the Skunk Train—which is also featured in Reed’s novel—in a post by Richard Campbell, “Is Save the Redwoods League Going into the Railroad Business?” https://www.savetheredwoods.org/blog/forest/is-save-the-redwoods-league-going-into-the-railroad-business/
