Set in a rural B.C. logging town, members of the community are coping with changes to their professional livelihoods, including middle-aged hockey player Andy Bathgate - or at least the man who pretends to be Andy Bathgate. A story of modern small-town Canada.

Middle-aged Andy Bathgate clings to a precarious life in the logging town of Mantua, British Columbia. He fears the balance he currently enjoys -his relationship with a good woman, the uneasy truce with her eco-activist son, senior hockey with his friends - will come undone the moment the truth comes out: that he is not, in fact, Andy Bathgate. What he doesn't realize is that the people of his community aren't as clueless as he believes- and that honesty, decency, and fairness still have a place in the 21st century. Written by award-winning non-fiction author Brian Fawcett, The Last of the Lumbermen weaves a story of modern small-town Canada in a voice seasoned with the wisdom and frankness of maturity.
