Call
It North Country The Story of Upper Michigan John Bartlow Martin |
John
Bartlow Martin, a freelance writer who had spent long weeks in northern
Wisconsin and Michigan, was struck with the idea of a book on Michigan's
Upper Peninsula when he was there on his wedding trip. Returning each summer
to the area, Martin discovered the region's diverse history, full of colorful
and interesting personalities and events. The territory has been wilderness,
a haunt of the Chippewas and the Hurons, copper country, iron country, lumber
country, and lastly, a vacation land. Filled with stories of adventure and daring, Call It North Country recounts the lives of miners, hunters, trappers, and lumberjacks — the hardy breeds who first populated the harsh land of the Upper Peninsula. |
