INSCRIPTION FROM GLENN SIGURDSON on half title page; Clean, tight, unmarked; crease to bottom back corner of cover; otherwise very minimal wear; appears unread; Sigurdson blends personal memoir, family history and Icelandic lore in a unique and wide-ranging autobiography. This book brings to life the people and places of Lake Winnipeg since the arrival of the Icelandic settlers to its shores in 1875 through the engaging lens of a family legacy of fishing on those waters. The perils of summer and winter fishing on an unpredictable and unforgiving lake are interwoven with accounts of Aboriginal partnerships, colourful characters, and a proud, resilient family.
