Description
In 1953, Marguerite Gahagan moved to rural northern Michigan to start the one-woman, highly regarded, conservation-minded newspaper, The North Woods Call. Leaving behind an award-winning reporting career in Detroit, she worked from a cabin in the woods to keep readers updated on natural resource issues. Pine Whispers tells the story of this hard-charging, enterprising newswoman and her times, much of it in her own words. It then shows her gentler side, with a selection of her writings transformed into seasonal poems that pay tribute to nature's grandeur.
