Klappentext

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The Pacific Lumber Company, officially abbreviated PALCO, was a wholly-owned subsidiary of Maxxam, Inc during its final decades. It was one of California's major logging and sawmill operations. The bulk of operations, including the historic company town of Scotia, California, remain located 28 miles (45 km) south of Eureka and 244 miles (393 km) north of San Francisco. Situated on US 101 along the Eel River, this large landholder managed timber holdings of nearly 210, 000 acres (890 km²) in the Redwood and Douglas-Fir forests of Humboldt County. It was one of the largest private employers in the region, appropriately known as the Redwood Empire.
