Episode description

Stewart Edward White's book, the Riverman, is filled with tales of a time when huge logs rode on America's rivers as they made their way to the sawmills that would determine their fate. Millions of dollars were made and spent in the boom towns that waited for this 'green gold' . Listen to this short tale of how one smart logger 'beat the houser' and stayed ahead of the game.
