North to Cree Lake

Plot

Karras wrote North to Cree Lake many years after he left northern Saskatchewan [Canada], but the clarity of his memories is remarkable, as is his deep love of the North. A farmer's assistant for $2 a day, a grain buyer, and ultimately a school administrator, Arthur Karras no longer hunted when he returned to civilization but continued to fish. The writing of North to Cree Lake occupied his thoughts for many years. Karras lived in Indian Head, Saskatchewan, with his wife and two sons, and wrote one other non-fiction book.--This text refers to the Paperback edition (Amazon.com product description).
