Big River: Resilience and Renewal in the Columbia Basin

In BIG RIVER, award-winning photographer David Moskowitz and writer Eileen Delehanty Pearkes illuminate the natural history, hydrogeology, beauty, and human activity on the Columbia River, while also highlighting the challenges facing the region and the people working on sustainable solutions.

The culmination of Moskowitz's many years of photographing the river and exploring its watershed and Eileen's decades of research, Big River seeks a path forward for the Columbia River Watershed, balancing the demands around water, salmon, agriculture, energy, and climate with the fundamental need for a sustainable living river.
