Florence Page Jaques and her husband, Francis Lee Jaques, became celebrated champions of the Boundary Waters and its majestic environs. Now, these classic books are both back in print as paperback editions. A well-traveled New York sophisticate, Florence Page Jaques fell in love with northern Minnesota during her first trips to the region, and she recounted those early experiences in Canoe Country and Snowshoe Country. She writes of the excitement of traveling by foot, canoe, snowshoe, and dogsled. Weeks of solitude canoeing through the Boundary Waters are interrupted by encounters with the denizens of the north country. In these two volumes, her vivid stories are matched by her famous husband’s spectacular drawings; Francis Lee Jaques captures the delicate power of Minnesota’s seasons, from the cascading falls of summer to the frozen lakes of winter.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: USItem Height: 260mmItem Length: 191mmItem Width: 25mmItem Weight: 454gAuthor: Florence Page JaquesIllustrator: Francis Lee JaquesContributor: Francis Lee Jaques (Illustrated by)Genre: Travel & TransportBook Series: Fesler-Lampert Minnesota Heritage BookTopic: BiographyRelease Year: 2021 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
