Taking Measure
TAKING MEASURE
close

Welcome to Taking Measure; a podcast series exploring Roderick Haig-Brown's 1950 classic work Measure of the Year: Reflections on home, family and a life fully lived. In this series, host Dan MacLennan sits at the desk in the study at Above Tide, also known as Haig-Brown House, in the city of Campbell River on Vancouver Island, BC. From here, he looks out the window across the grounds at the Campbell River flowing past, just as Haig-Brown did when he wrote more than 20 books and numerous articles and essays, lectures and more. He was a remarkable man on many levels: an early eloquent naturalist and conservationist, a farmer, a magistrate, a university chancellor and an award-winning author. In the world of fly fishing, he occupies the pantheon. In his book Measure of the Year, Haig-Brown presents a chapter for each month in the lives of the farm, his family, the community and the nature that surrounds them. We're going to bring you Haig-Brown in 12 parts through his book and through the eyes and voices of his four children and others who knew him well. We'll take a measure of the man through his Measure of the Year. Visit https://www.haig-brown.bc.ca for a virtual tour of the house and all that it offers. Here you can also find shownotes for our podcast episodes.
