He and his sister Cynthia, a firecracker who scandalizes the family at fourteen by taking up with the son of their Finnish-Native American gardener, are mostly left to make their own way. As David comes to adulthood-often guided and enlightened by the unforgettable, intractable, courageous women he loves-he realizes he must come to terms with his forefathers' rapacious destruction of the woods of Michigan's Upper Peninsula, as well as the working people who made their wealth possible. <p/>Jim Harrison has given us a family tragedy of betrayal, amends, and justice for the worst sins. <i>True North</i> is a bravura performance from one of our finest writers, accomplished with deep humanity, humor, and redemptive soul.
