committed from the aborigines against the white man, nonetheless it should be remembered the blacks were given great provocation.
After targeting about two minutes and a half, he pulled the trigger.

He told Mother that his two black boys became very nasty the evening if
we left their camp; they yelled and sang during most in the night.

Full of truth and lunacy. But, re. beer’s fascist tendencies: I bet Mussolini and his followers drank more wine than beer. Also Caesar as the slaves died before him in the Coliseum. So, ah, um, no.

I have read almost every book of Jim Harrison’s. My son and daughter-in-law are Superintendent and Principal of the Grand Marais School. What a phenomenal place right on the shoreline of Lake Superior. Almost 4 years ago I had just lost my hair, thanks to chemotherapy, drove to Grand Marais, saw a huge boulder out in the Big Lake, waded out and climbed the boulder. My son took a moving photo. Now Jim Harrison I love your UP stories (I LIVED THERE FOR 16 YEARS) BUT I can truly relate with you to the spirituality of The Place and the magnificent Lake Superior. There is no other! I love the Dunes, beer & wine. Thank you Jim Harrison for all you have done to make others lives happier, richer and especially mine.
