Summary:
"This section [between Hope and Mission] of the Fraser River sustains almost thirty species of fish, including Canada's largest population of white sturgeon. ... From a wildlife perspective, the area is equally impressive. Red-tail hawks, bald eagles, turkey vultures, as well as green and great blue herons, frequent the river's edge. ... Many of Canada's most important cultural sites are also found here. ... As of yet, despite the area's global significance, there is no collaborative land-use plan in place. We can ensure this natural treasure remains intact; but only if we act together. No book better conveys the opportunity, and the challenge, than Sturgeon Reach." --foreword [p.8-9]
