Synopsis
This breathtaking memoir follows the early life and times of Dr Gerald R Patterson, a remarkable young man raised in a lakeside cabin in northern Minnesota with the wilderness at his back door. Through a series of stories told as though sitting around a campfire, Dr Patterson describes how he developed the outdoor skills that were required for the rite of passage into manhood in his tight-knit family. With vividly described stories about his years as a canoe guide during the 1940's and 50's, to his experiences as a soldier in WWll, A Guide's Tale is a moving tribute to family and the wilderness, an insightful journey into the life of a canoe guide as it has never been told before.
