Résumé
John Beargrease (1862-1910), the son of an Anishinabe chief, hauled the mail by dogsled between pioneer communities along Minnesota's tempestuous Lake Superior shore line. The annual John Beargrease Sled Dog Marathon is named in his honor. Daniel Lancaster follows the… legendary Beargrease through the settlement and development of the North Shore on his difficult traverse from traditional Anishinabe life to the modern world. Rich in history, mythology, and local legend, this is an engrossing read for anyone who has ever fallen in love with Lake Superior's wave-washed shores and snowy winters. Unrated
