Log Drive, Logging loggers Phillip Goodwin

Description: Log Drive, Logging loggers Phillip Goodwin This is not an old print, but a copy of a very old print. I bought these second hand, from a man who used to be in the printing business. Not sure of the age. 11" X 14 1/2" Log driving is a means of log transport which makes use of a river's current to move floating logs downstream to sawmills. It was the main transportation method of the early logging industry in Europe and North American. When the first sawmills were established, they usually were small and were established in the forest in temporary facilities, then moved to new areas as the timber was exhausted. Later, bigger mills were developed that were not portable, and these were usually established in the lower reaches of a river, with the logs brought to them by floating downriver by log drivers. To ensure that logs drifted freely along the river, men called "log drivers" were needed to guide the logs. This was an exceedingly dangerous occupation, with the drivers standing on the moving logs and running from one to another. When one caught on an obstacle and formed a logjam, someone had to free the offending log. This required some understanding of physics, strong muscles, and extreme agility. Many log drivers lost their lives by falling and being crushed by the logs.
