  <p>Veronica Woodruff is an outdoor recreationalist and an environmental scientist. She's spend more than half her life living in the mountains of BC, and her latest book, Blind Drunk: A Sober Look at Our Boozy Culture examines the unique role alcohol plays, not only in mountain culture and ski town, but in western society at large. A mix of pertinent personal anecdotes and memoir with well-researched studies and history, Blind Drunk walks the fine line of introspection and engagement without stumbling into judgment or shame. blinddrunk.ca</p>
