Description
On a two-week outdoor winter snowshoeing trip in northern Saskatchewan with her niece Dilly, outdoor adventurer Jay tells stories as they hike and camp. Some are true - her outdoor training in Wyoming, her early life on the farm - and some are stories within stories within stories. A faux diamond necklace that mysteriously appears and disappears, Jay's youthful encounters with the mysterious Cowboy, an inspiring series of books that she read on her long-ago canoe trip alone - all are underscored by Jay's love and respect for the wild. In The School of the Haunted River, the late Colleen Gerwing fashioned a novel based on her own life as an outdoorswoman, a novel about the natural world that will haunt and enchant even as it educates you.
