Ah I had it coming. I posted a recommendation for a book about immigration (off topic) by an author who could be called left-leaning. I was excited about the book but could have chosen a more appropriate venue to share it. And the person who responded is no longer camping at this park, for other reasons. :)

Last time I posted here, I was promptly mocked, but being the youngest child (and only girl) of two older and sometimes brutal brothers, I'm not that easily intimidated. So, here are some more suggestions:
Coursera course called Indigenous Canada. Thought some members here might be interested in this course, given the interest in wilderness areas long-inhabited by humans but used almost exclusively now by white folk. Something I think about as I access and paddle those special places.
Another suggestion is Chel Anderson's tome called North Shore, A Natural History of Minnesota's Superior Coast. Although it was published in 2015, it is a new read to me, and quite a book.

Thanks for the tip. Just requested Anderson's book from my library. In the same vein check out The Superior North Shore by Thomas F. Waters. "A Natural History of Lake Superior's Northern Lands and Waters".

Thanks! My sister lives on the north shore in Superior. The Anderson book will make a nice gift for her (when I'm done with it). :) I stop by to visit and have lunch every year as I pass through for my trip.
