Book Synopsis This Superior Place by : Dennis McCann
Download or read book This Superior Place written by Dennis McCann and published by . This book was released on 2013-05-23 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Picturesque little Bayfield on Lake Superior is Wisconsin’s smallest city by population but one of its most popular visitor destinations. This book captures those unique qualities that keep tourists coming back year after year and offers a historically reliable look at the community as it is today and how it came to be. Abundantly illustrated with both historical and contemporary images, This Superior Place showcases, as author Dennis McCann writes, “a community where the past was layered with good times and down times, where natural beauty was the one resource that could not be exhausted by the hand of man, and where history is ever present.” Because Bayfield serves as “the gateway to the Apostle Islands,” the book also includes chapters on the Apostle Islands National Lakeshore, Madeline Island, and the nearby Red Cliff Ojibwe community. It also covers the significant eras in the city’s history: lumbering, quarrying, commercial fishing, and the advent of the orchards visitors see today. It is not a guidebook as such but more of a visual and written tour of the city and the major elements that came together to make it what it is. Colorful stories from the past, written in Dennis McCann’s casual, humorous style, give a sense of the unique characters and events that have shaped this charming city on the lake.

Book Synopsis Sustaining Lake Superior by : Nancy Langston
Download or read book Sustaining Lake Superior written by Nancy Langston and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2017-10-24 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A compelling exploration of Lake Superior’s conservation recovery and what it can teach us in the face of climate change Lake Superior, the largest lake in the world, has had a remarkable history, including resource extraction and industrial exploitation that caused nearly irreversible degradation. But in the past fifty years it has experienced a remarkable recovery and rebirth. In this important book, leading environmental historian Nancy Langston offers a rich portrait of the lake’s environmental and social history, asking what lessons we should take from the conservation recovery as this extraordinary lake faces new environmental threats. In her insightful exploration, Langston reveals hope in ecosystem resilience and the power of community advocacy, noting ways Lake Superior has rebounded from the effects of deforestation and toxic waste wrought by mining and paper manufacturing. Yet, despite the lake’s resilience, threats persist. Langston cautions readers regarding new mining interests and persistent toxic pollutants that are mobilizing with climate change.

Book excerpt: This is the first-ever large-format full-color book on the human history and natural history of the Apostle Islands National Lakeshore. The text is by Jeff Rennicke, an accomplished outdoor writer who lives in Bayfield, WI, the "gateway to the Apostles." Photographs are by Layne Kennedy, whose assignments have included National Geographic, Smithsonian, and many other publications. The books covers the history of the islands, from native American habitation, voyageurs and French missionaries, to European Americans who made their livings off the islands' forests and fishing, as well as a brief boom in brownstone quarrying. 21 of the 22 islands are now part of the national park system, and in August 2005, dedication ceremonies were held for the Gaylord A. Nelson National Wilderness, in honor of the islands' champion and founder of Earth Day. Foreword is by William Bechtel, late Senator Nelson's chief of staff during the time the islands were visited by John F. Kennedy and subsequently became a national park. The text also covers the unique geography and ecosystems of the islands.
