Sobre este item
University of Minnesota Press, 1979. Hard cover. Like New/Very Good. 9x6x0. Over 250,000 people visit Minnesota's only national park each year. This popularity raises crucial questions: Can timber wolves thrive amid snowmobiles and jet skis? Can the thin layer of fragile soil atop the Precambrian shield, the oldest exposed rock on earth, survive the feet of campers? Voyageur Country explores these quandaries, describes the environmental significance of the park, and presents the only complete history of this important region. The birth of the modern incarnation of Voyageurs as a national park is detailed, with accounts of the contributions of Sigurd Olson and other conservationists. Voyageur Country is an essential launching point for considering the policy that guides our relationship with the land. Robert Treuer published numerous short stories, newspaper columns, articles, book reviews, and books. He was a columnist for The Bemidji Pioneer and The Star Tribute. His short stories have appeared in The Atlantic Monthly, the Yankee, The Eagle, and other periodicals. More than six hundred of his newspaper columns, as well as book reviews and articles, have appeared in the Minneapolis Star Tribune, The Washington Post, the Chicago Tribune, the Chicago Sun, the Milwaukee Journal, the Washingtonian, and numerous other publications. His books include A Northwoods Window, The Tree Farm, and Voyageur Country: A Park in the Wilderness.
