On Island Time: Wildlife, Windsleds, and a Wedding on Madeline Island

By Patricia Spaulding

Book Overview

"The door to a new world opens when a city woman and her husband decide to build a house on an island reachable only by ferry boat in summer, ice highway in winter--and sometimes not reachable at all. Construction of the couple's log house proceeds at a slow pace, giving them plenty of time to learn about the locals. This book is a wry and funny account of their apprenticeship in island living. They emerge from the experience with a new and deeper appreciation for the inhabitants--both two and four-legged--of Madeline Island. The book will delight all who dream of escaping to their own cabin Up North."--
