SUMMARY:Oct/Nov Book Club
DESCRIPTION:Northland: A 4\,000-Mile Journey Along America’s Forgotten Border by Porter Fox\n\n \n\n“America’s northern border is the world’s longest international boundary\, yet it remains obscure even to Americans. The northern border was America’s primary border for centuries―much of the early history of the United States took place there―and to the tens of millions who live and work near the line\, the region even has its own name: the northland.\n\nTravel writer Porter Fox spent three years exploring 4\,000 miles of the border between Maine and Washington\, traveling by canoe\, freighter\, car\, and foot. In Northland\, he blends a deeply reported and beautifully written story of the region’s history with a riveting account of his travels. Setting out from the easternmost point in the mainland United States\, Fox follows explorer Samuel de Champlain’s adventures across the Northeast; recounts the rise and fall of the timber\, iron\, and rail industries; crosses the Great Lakes on a freighter; tracks America’s fur traders through the Boundary Waters; and traces the forty-ninth parallel from Minnesota to the Pacific Ocean. Fox\, who grew up the son of a boat-builder in Maine’s northland\, packs his narrative with colorful characters (Captain Meriwether Lewis\, railroad tycoon James J. Hill\, Chief Red Cloud of the Lakota Sioux) and extraordinary landscapes (Glacier National Park\, the Northwest Angle\, Washington’s North Cascades). He weaves in his encounters with residents\, border guards\, Indian activists\, and militia leaders to give a dynamic portrait of the northland today\, wracked by climate change\, water wars\, oil booms\, and border security.”\n\n\n\nOur next meeting is scheduled for Saturday\, November 20\, 2021…10:30AM outside at Pomegranate Books (Weather Permitting). Due to COVID-19 social gathering restrictions\, chairs will need to be spaced at least 6ft apart. \n \nCFRW Book Club members receive a 15% discount at Pomegranate Books (910) 452-1107.
