The St Lawrence

Now back in print for a new generation of readers, Henry Beston's The St. Lawnrence was one of the most beloved titles in the Rivers of America series when it was first published in 1942. This classic work of naturalist writing recalls the people, places, and wildlife along this vast watercourse-brought to life through original sketches by the Group of Seven's A.Y. Jackson. A new introduction by Beston's biographer, Daniel Payne, situates the work within its historical context for the modern reader.
