Book Reviews of Cache Lake Country: Life in the North Woods
Book Review: Extraordinary
Summary: 5 Stars
Fine fine book, mix of lore, sociology, wisdom, natureetc.Book description on Amazon.com is slightly incorrect. Setting is in Northern Ontario, but the geography and topography is the same as Maine,although the sociology and native references are different in Maine.
Have given over five copies to friends,
Signed, A Manhattanite with a cabin in Northern Ontario
Book Review: Best Outdoor Book Ever!
Summary: 5 Stars
I first read this book in 1972, the original 1947 edition. It is one of the few permanent items in my library. I read it again at least once a year. I have even tried some of the projects John describes including the radio set made out of bits laying around the cabin. If you want a relaxing and enjoyable read about life in the woods, get this!Book Review: Most enjoyable book
Summary: 5 Stars
I first read this book in my senior year in high school. Once I rediscovered it I have read it at least once a year. It paints a picture of a world gone by the way and it brings the experience to life. If you love the outdoors, you will find this a pleasure to read. I would recommend it to anyone from 14 years old to 100.Book Review: You can never go home, but...
Summary: 5 Stars
My love of the outdoors was put into words when this book was written...this book represents everything that most of us outdoorstypes seek, strive for and will never, in our best dream, our best canoe trips, our best camping trips, achieve. The artwork in the book only adds to an already wonderful escape from reality!!!Book Review: A true outdoor classic.
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a wonderful book for anyone interested in spending time with and learning woodlore from a man who has lived in close harmony with nature. This is a gentle year in the life of a woodsman who shows us how he lives with nature in all its seasons and moods. It is a true "classic"!
