The Boundary Waters region of Minnesota and Ontario is a vast wilderness of quiet beauty, visited and loved by many, but home to only a rugged few. Justine Kerfoot arrived there in 1928 and has lived there ever since.

Her lyrical descriptions of wildlife and seasonal environments express the deep reverence for nature that has become her way of life.
