A Death in the Barrens, by George Grinnell

Nice illustrations, the watercolor guy from Heron Dance.

Not my favorite read this year. I guess I can understand the screwed up approach of the 1800 & 1900's and the early explorers, but 1950's?? These guys were looking for trouble.
Parts were good though. It was before things were all opened up. Just on the cusp of the modern tripper age today.

3/5 stars.
