Landlooker in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan

"This collection of reminiscences of John Munro Longyear tells at first hand a story that is part of the saga of America. Here he describes how as a young man of twenty-three, he worked collecting information about the wilderness country known as the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. The hard, gruelling life in the wilderness gripped Mr. Longyear with a fascination that did not diminish once his goal in life was set."--Book jacket.
