A former fishing guide and avid fisherman as well as an accomplished chef, Ron Berg understands how the lure of wetting a line draws millions of visitors to northern lakes each year. In Northwoods Fish Cookery, Berg brings together his love of the outdoors and passion for food. Informative chapters on fishing techniques and cleaning, preparing, and cooking fish -- including campfire how-tos, shore lunches, and smoking tips and recipes -- will be helpful to all. Novices and experienced fishers will learn simple ways to turn the day's catch into meals such as Walleye Broiled in White Wine or Grilled Peppered Lake Trout, which can easily be prepared over a fire or in the cabin. Also included are an extensive list of delicious and easy-to-prepare appetizers, accompaniments, stuffings, and sauces. Who could resist Spinach Stuffed Tomatoes Gratinee or mashed potatoes prepared ten different innovative and tasty ways? These recipes are not only for the avid fisher, however. Those who prefer to find their fish at the local market and prepare it in their kitchen will learn to make Bacon Hazelnut Stuffed Brook Trout with Wild Mushroom Sauce or Salmon with Champagne Basil Cream. Rounding out his own creations, Berg lists some of his favorite popular recipes from Minnesota restaurants and resorts, including Tofte's Bluefin Restaurant and the Lost Lake Lodge of the Brainerd Lakes area. Northwoods Fish Cookery includes Berg's own fishing tips, humorous anecdotes, and lore from the Gunflint Trail, giving the book a crisp, northwoods flavor sure to delight outdoor enthusiasts and lovers of fine food everywhere.

Western culture may have enshrined North as a touchstone by which all other directions are defined, but the North is not one but a number of Netherlands; like all frontiers, the North is, in its essence, imaginative, magicked out of ice and snow, muskeg and tundra. Storytelling is its generative principle, the activity through which the North and Northerners call themselves into being. In essays on topics ranging from the Aboriginal justice system in Canada to the search for the Northwest Passage to the cultural paradigms of medieval Iceland, The Fictional North examines stereotypes and iconic images of the North, the relationship of North to South, and ethnographic and fictional models of “Northerness.” This diversity of subjects and methodologies not only introduces readers to the diversity found above the 53rd Parallel, but also reflects the catholicity of the North itself. Interdisciplinary and timely, The Fictional North offers insights into the North’s past as well as its present to those interested in circumpolar issues and the areas of culture, literature, history, film, sociology, and education.
