North Country: A Pedagogical Almanac is a memoir-in-essays about teaching and family life in Michigan's Upper Peninsula. The book follows the cycle of seasons in this remote and beautiful place by the waters of Lake Superior during the years in which the author finds a place there. It's also a look at higher education on the razor's edge at a tiny and struggling liberal arts college. Above all, the memoir is about a life lived alongside books and what they might teach us about how to love, parent, mentor, and care for others.
