Long-Shadowed Forest by Helen Hoover

In 1954, Helen Hoover and her husband Adrian left their careers and the big-city life of Chicago to move to a small cabin in the north woods that border Minnesota and Canada. Living without electricity, telephone, or a car, the Hoovers became part of the environment, peacefully coexisting with their wild neighbors. The Long-Shadowed Forest is the amazing record of the Hoovers' relationship with deer, mice, birds, squirrels, moose, and other creatures of the forest. The Long-Shadowed Forest, illustrated throughout with Adrian's charming line drawings, is a welcome treat for Helen Hoover fans and will be compelling reading for nature lovers everywhere.
Helen Hoover (1910-1984) is the author of several books, including The Years of the Forest (1973) and A Place in the Woods (1969). Before moving to the remote wilderness of northern Minnesota in 1954, she was an accomplished chemist. Many of her books are illustrated by her husband Adrian, and she enjoyed popularity with readers across the country.
