Teasing out the history
of a place celebrated for timelessness--where
countless paddle strokes have disappeared into clear
waters--requires a sure and attentive hand. Stephen
Wilbers's account reaches back to the glaciers that
first carved out the Boundary Waters and to the
original inhabitants, as well as to generations of
wilderness explorers, both past and present. He does
so without losing the personal relationship built
through a lifetime of pilgrimages (anchored by
almost three decades of trips with his father). This
story captures the untold broader narrative of the
region, as well as a thousand different details sure
to be recognized by fellow pilgrims, like the
grinding rhythm of a long portage or the loon call
that slips into that last moment before sleep.
