STORM Books

Few people know it by name, but millions of Ontarians enjoy the quiet oasis of green this natural feature provides. Extending over 200 kilometres, from the Niagara Escarpment in the west to almost the Trent River in the east, this immense ridge of land was created during the last great ice age. Members of the Save the Oak Ridges Moraine Coalition celebrate the special nature of the moraine in this extraordinary collection of essays and photographs.
