Description

B/w photographic illustrations throughout.The Boundary Waters region of Minnesota and Ontario is a vast wilderness of quiet beauty, loved by many but home for few. Finding it necessary to adapt to year-round life at her mother's fledgling summer resort, Justime was confronted with learning survival in the frigid north woods, a challenge she met with verve; she recounts her experiences in this remarkable book. Her descriptions of wildlife and seasonal environments express her deep reverence for nature that has become her way of life.
