Hiking the North Shore
by Andrew Slade
There and Back Books
ISBN: 978-0-9794675-2-3
$16.95 Softcover
Naturalist Andrew Slade has added hiking to his camping and skiing Minnesota’s North Shore guides. It offers concise information and maps with a few tidbits to enhance the hike. Because Andrew has done these hikes, likely many times (photos often feature him or his dog, Chloe), the advice is useful. For those into life lists, Andrew’s development of 50 day hikes can become a goal. – KLM
My Heart is a Mountain

The subtitle “Tales and Magic of the Land” aptly describes the short stories and memoir of this Cook, Minnesota, writer.

The Willow Tree and other inclinations
by George Gott
Savage Press
ISBN: 978-1-886028-93-7
$14.95 Softcover
While the form of University of Wisconsin-Superior professor emeritus George Gott’s poetry is not haiku, his sparse, lyric offerings harken to it. He dissects religion, politics and life with words both calming and provocative. A worthy meditation. – KLM
