What is there about the Park that made Tom Thomson, Canada's foremost painter of the Northern Canadian Scene, adopt it as his home? Is it the lithe grace of a deer on the portage, or the yellow splash of the autumn birch, or the tingling nerve in the fisherman's arm as the trout takes the fly? Perhaps it is the warm touch of living history~the presence of old~time residents and rangers, with their stories of the Gilmour brothers' fantastic lumber drive, or Grandpa Dennison's tragic encounter with the bear. Perhaps it lies in the mossy rotting logs of the old "camboose" camps. Whatever the answer, the magic of the Park echoes through this book. "Algonquin Story" is no ordinary story. Simply, unpretentiously, skillfully, Audrey Saunders has told the story of Algonquin Park. Snatches of reminiscence by gnarled old lumbermen; vivid little sketches of wild life episodes; intimate anecdotes of Canada's great and humble, meeting as equals in a land where a man is simply himself; glimpses of camp activities that put a breath of fresh northern vigour into the meaning of the fusty word "education"~all these and more make it a book worth reading. "Can anyone who has seen if forget the sudden glimpse, as he paddles quietly along the lakeshore, of a deer drinking at the water's edge ? ~ the quick graceful lift and turn of the head, the soft inquiring eyes, the curve of the glistening black nostrils; the great sensitive ears searching the air for sound, the delicate poise of the tense lithe body, the twitch of the short, white~tufted tail? "Whoever has experienced such a moment will want to read this book. Others, old and young, will want to read it too; all Canadians and others who love the northern wilderness; all people who have wondered about its future." ~From Introduction by Selwyn Dewdney . Schoolboys and grandfathers, educationists and fishermen, above all "just plain people" will enjoy "Algonquin Story." The Coming of Champlain ~ The Coming of the Missionaries ~ The Iroquois Attacks ~ The Fur Traders ~ Arrival of the Timbermen ~ First Settlers ~ Families: Dufonds, Dennisons, Garvies & McDonalds.
