Mudflat dreaming : waterfront battles and the squatters who fought them in 1970s Vancouver

Walton, Jean 1957- (author.).

Summary: "Explores two settlements on Vancouver's waterfront fringes in the 1970s: Bridgeview, a working-class neighborhood on the south bank of the Fraser river, mired in a decades-long battle with local council for basic amenities, and the Maplewood Mudflats squatters, a counter-cultural village of shacks on stilts raised above the tides on the city's North Shore. The book traverses the intersecting domains of activist and documentary film, waterfront environmentalism, urban politics, utopian experiments, working class struggle, Canadian Studies, and Pacific Northwest Regional literature."--Provided by the publisher.
