Description

Since its establishment as a federally secure wilderness in 1964, the Boundary Waters has turn out to be one among our nation’s most valuable―and most incessantly visited―natural treasures. When Amy and Dave Freeman learned of toxic mining proposed throughout the area’s watershed, they determined to do so―by spending a year within the wilderness, and sharing their experience through video, photos, and blogs with an audience of hundreds of thousands of concerned citizens. This book tells the deeper story in their adventure in northern Minnesota: of loons whistling under a moonrise, of ice booming as it forms and cracks, of a moose and her calf swimming across a misty lake.

With the magic―and urgent―message that has rallied an international audience to the campaign to avoid wasting the Boundary Waters, A Year within the Wilderness is a rousing cry of witness activism, and a stunning tribute to this singularly beautiful region.
