North Woods River
Author: Eileen M. McMahon
Publisher: Univ of Wisconsin Press
ISBN: 0299234231
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 353
Book Description
The St. Croix River, the free-flowing boundary between Wisconsin and Minnesota, is a federally protected National Scenic Riverway. The area’s first recorded human inhabitants were the Dakota Indians, whose lands were transformed by fur trade empires and the loggers who called it the “river of pine.” A patchwork of farms, cultivated by immigrants from many countries, followed the cutover forests. Today, the St. Croix River Valley is a tourist haven in the land of sky-blue waters and a peaceful escape for residents of the bustling Minneapolis–St. Paul metropolitan region. North Woods River is a thoughtful biography of the river over the course of more than three hundred years. Eileen McMahon and Theodore Karamanski track the river’s social and environmental transformation as newcomers changed the river basin and, in turn, were changed by it. The history of the St. Croix revealed here offers larger lessons about the future management of beautiful and fragile wild waters.

Book Description
The St. Croix River offers solitude and solace, scenery and diverse species, and sunshine and sand. The year 2020 made those qualities even more valuable. This collection of essays and scattering poems, published on St. Croix 360 from winter through late fall, follows adventures on the water and on the bluffs, tracing the year's uncertain arc. The stories are found on foot, paddling a canoe or kayak, and by boat. These words are an ode to the river, the many living things that call it home - and a priceless place for many people. The St. Croix provides respite, reassurance, and awe all year long. River of Refuge lets you experience it any time you open the book.
