Book excerpt: Sault Ste. Marie was destined to be a gathering place. Native Americans relied on the rapids of the St. Mary's River, which links two Great Lakes, Superior and Huron, for a year-round supply of fish. Its population swelled in the summer--a tradition that continued as French traders came to turn in their pelts and celebrate the end of another long, hard winter. After the Revolutionary War, the Sault, as it is called, became a community divided on national lines, with the United States holding one shore and Canada the other. Eventually man conquered the rapids, and today the Soo Locks transport millions of tons of freight annually to ports all over the world. Tourists are drawn by the cool breezes off the lake and the sight of steel behemoths passing almost close enough to touch.

Book excerpt: The Saint Marys River is a very busy waterway, connecting Lake Superior to Lake Huron. This book traces the long and colorful history of the most important river in the upper Great Lakes, with stops on four of its largest islands, and thorough history of the ancient settlement of Sault Sainte Marie, at the head of the river.The book was originally published by Wayne State University Press in 1955, but has long since been out of print. It was written by Joseph and Estelle Bayliss, in collaboration with the eminent historian of the Great Lakes, Dr. Milo Quaife. Original publication was timed to coincide with the centennial celebration of the 1855 opening of the "Soo Locks." The locks made the rich copper and iron ore deposits of the Lake Superior region available to the nation's growing industrial base-just in time to meet the needs for armament of the Union Army in the Civil War. And almost a century after that, about 90% of the iron ore used to build the ships, tanks, and other weaponry needed by the U.S. Armed Forces in WWII came from Lake Superior mines and passed through the locks and down the Saint Marys River to steel mills on the lower lakes. That's why the authors chose the title "River of Destiny." The French were the first Europeans to explore the upper Great Lakes. Etienne Brulé, a protégé of Samuel Champlain, was the first Frenchman to set eyes on Lake Superior, in about 1620. When he arrived at the site of present-day Sault Ste. Marie, he found a thriving village of Ojibwa living by the large rapids. Since "sault" is French for "rapids," these people were called "saulteurs" by the early French explorers and missionaries. Henry Schoolcraft arrived about two centuries after Brulé. He married Jane Johnston, who was half Ojibwa, and while living at the Sault and working as Indian Agent, he collected legends and lore of the Ojibwa-information that was used by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow to write "Song of Hiawatha." The story told in River of Destiny:The Saint Marys starts with the first European contact, and runs through mid-twentieth century. The Chippewa County Historical Society is proud to be able to make this classic history available to a new generation, who will find it to be both readable and reliable. This edition contains a dozen images that were not in the original edition, plus a new Foreword by Bernie Arbic.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When bright and spirited Norvia moves from the country to the city, she has to live by one new rule: Never let anyone know you’re Ojibwe. Growing up on Beaver Island, Grand-père told Norvia stories—stories about her ancestor Migizi, about Biboonke-o-nini the Wintermaker, about the Crane Clan and the Reindeer Clan. He sang her songs in the old language, and her grandmothers taught her to make story quilts and maple candy. On the island, Norvia was proud of her Ojibwe heritage. Things are different in the city. Here, Norvia’s mother forces her to pretend she’s not Native at all—even to Mr. Ward, Ma’s new husband, and to Vernon, Norvia’s irritating new stepbrother. In fact, there are a lot of changes in the city: ten-cent movies, gleaming soda shops, speedy automobiles, ninth grade. It’s dizzying for a girl who grew up on the forested shores of Lake Michigan. Despite the move, the upheaval, and the looming threat of world war, Norvia and her siblings—all five of them—are determined to make 1914 their best year ever. Norvia is certain that her future depends upon it... and upon her discretion. But how can she have the best year ever if she has to hide who she truly is? Sensitive, enthralling, and classic in sensibility (perfect for Anne of Green Gables fans), this tender coming-of-age story about an introspective and brilliant Native American heroine thoughtfully addresses assimilation, racism, and divorce, as well as everygirl problems like first crushes, making friends, and the joys and pains of a blended family. Often funny, often heartbreaking, The Star That Always Stays is a fresh and vivid story directly inspired by Anna Rose Johnson’s family history. AN NPR BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR!
