This book chronicles that journey, a 1,000-mile walk around the world's fifth-largest lake. The book explores both the geology of the lake and the measure of a person--a woman, married, mother of two sons (who joined her for portions of the walk). But most of the walk was done solo, an adventure in discovery of self and place.\nNiewenhuis conveys a sense of the magnitude of the lake she loves, a place so elemental to the four Midwestern states that form its shores.\nFrom a ground-level perspective, the book explores the natural and human history of Lake Michigan . . . and raises important questions about preserving our wild places and protecting fragile ecosystems on which we all depend.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1933987154\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.1933987154.VG\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Very Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Loreen Niewenhuis\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Book has little sign of wear or use  \u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Blue Vase Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43413004779581,"sku":"BVV.1933987154.VG","price":9.29,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0589\/4225\/9261\/files\/1933987154-0.jpg?v=1785532921","url":"https:\/\/www.bluevasebooks.com\/products\/a-1000-mile-walk-on-the-beach-one-womans-trek-of-the-perimeter-of-lake-michigan","provider":"Blue Vase Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
