Around the Shores of Lake Superioris an ideal trip planner and a unique guide to the region.

Book excerpt: A novel full of heart, in which love, friendship, and charity teach a young woman to live a bigger life. When Madeline Stone walks away from Chicago and moves five hundred miles north to the coast of Lake Superior, in Michigan's Upper Peninsula, she isn't prepared for how much her life will change. Charged with caring for an aging family friend, Madeline finds herself in the middle of beautiful nowhere with Gladys and Arbutus, two octogenarian sisters-one sharp and stubborn, the other sweeter than sunshine. As Madeline begins to experience the ways of the small, tight-knit town, she is drawn into the lives and dramas of its residents. It's a place where times are tough and debts run deep, but friendship, community, and compassion run deeper. As the story hurtles along-featuring a lost child, a dashed love, a car accident, a wedding, a fire, and a romantic reunion-Gladys, Arbutus, and the rest of the town teach Madeline more about life, love, and goodwill than she's learned in a lifetime. A heartwarming novel, South of Superior explores the deep reward in caring for others, and shows how one who is poor in pocket can be rich in so many other ways, and how little it often takes to make someone happy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Great Lakes are the largest collection of fresh surface water on earth, and more than 40 million Americans and Canadians live in their basin. Will we divert water from the Great Lakes, causing them to end up like Central Asia's Aral Sea, which has lost 90 percent of its surface area and 75 percent of its volume since 1960? Or will we come to see that unregulated water withdrawals are ultimately catastrophic? Peter Annin writes a fast-paced account of the people and stories behind these upcoming battles. Destined to be the definitive story for the general public as well as policymakers, The Great Lakes Water Wars is a balanced, comprehensive look behind the scenes at the conflicts and compromises that are the past-and future-of this unique resource.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Along the Bowstring, or South Shore of Lake Superior They traveled and they traveled And the next thing they did spy Was the moon behind a hill-top, And that they left behind - look a' thar! Now, the one he said it was the moon But the other he said 'nay, ' So they 'lowed it was a green cheese With the rind all cut away - look a' thar! - College Song. One of the most original of my acquaintances said to me once that he had spent an evening with M. Flammarion, the greatest of astronomers, and had taken that occasion to catechise the master about other worlds than ours. "And do you know," said he, "that after hearing about all the other planets I have come to the conviction that this is a good enough world for me? It is true that this world has defects; for instance, a man cannot have his picture put on the postage stamps until after he is dead - but, take it all in all, I shall be satisfied if I get my share of all the fun and beauty, and sight-seeing and good eating and pleasant company this rolling pill affords without caring a snap to live in Saturn and get a couple of celestial belts thrown in, like chromos." But one of the best features of life on this planet is the fact that no man or set of men can make it different. In spite of them, it keeps rolling around and exposing to solar view characteristics and portions in which they take no interest. A powerful body of persons, for instance, is satisfied to go to Newport every year at vast expense, to move in a tiny set whose lives are devoted to proving that the Declaration of Independence is all wrong, and that only a few are created equal while all the rest are vulgar. A still more influential body of persons think the sum of human happiness is reached if they can go to Brighton, England, to ride or walk up and down a stone embankment with towering hotels on one side and a cold ocean, unfit for either bathing or boating, on the other.
