About this title

Synopsis

Chambers of Commerce won't be giving this book away any time soon! A high-spirited, humorous look at a special land and the challenges of living in a remote region with more trees than people, long winters, and two-track roads. Visitors are warned about the climate, insects, wildlife, local residents and other potential "dangers." In a more serious epilogue, the author asks that visitors tread gently on the land and fold themselves into the Upper Peninsula way of life that its residents hold dear. Illustrated with regional map and 12 black/white drawings.

About the Author

He now fears he may have been too successful in luring visitors and potential residents to the region and has written You Wouldn't Like it Here to present the "realities" of visiting and living in a remote region which should be known to attracted to the area.
