I'll throw out a name you don't hear very often, James Oliver Curwood. He was writing northwoods themed action adventure novels in the early 1900s. They usually took place in Canada or Alaska but the flavor fits if you like the old romantic woodsman type of story.

If you were asked to choose one book or one author that best captured the spirit of the Boundary Waters (or environs), which/whom would you choose?
Fiction or Non-Fiction (or better yet one of each!), poetry, philosophy, environmental studies..
I have, and have read (at one point or another) Bill Mason (non-fiction) and William Kent Krueger (Fiction) and enjoyed them, but looking for anything else out there that is a must read?
