“Romantic, urgent, valuable and appealing as hell.” —Andrew McCarthy, New York Times Book Review Writer Porter Fox spent three years exploring 4,000 miles of the border between Maine and Washington, traveling by canoe, freighter, car, and foot. In Northland, he blends a deeply reported and beautifully written story of the region’s history with a riveting account of his travels. Setting out from the easternmost point in the mainland United States, Fox follows explorer Samuel de Champlain’s adventures across the Northeast; recounts the rise and fall of the timber, iron, and rail industries; crosses the Great Lakes on a freighter; and traces the forty-ninth parallel from Minnesota to the Pacific Ocean. He weaves in his encounters with residents, border guards, Indian activists, and militia leaders to give a dynamic portrait of the northland today, wracked by climate change, water wars, oil booms, and border security.

Bjarn was raised in the Northland, a mountainous country of almost unbearable cold. In this unforgiving environment, the survivors became quick, agile, and incredibly strong. Because the land could support only a limited number of people, a select number of people were expelled to make their way in the outside world. But before they were released, they were highly trained to be mighty skilled warriors. Emotions were systematically suppressed to prevent interfering with the sometimes daunting tasks they must prepare to face. This is the story of the Northlander, who earned success and wealth as a most honorable mercenary. Accepting only those assignments that met his self defined moral standards of honor, he agrees to protect a princess on a dangerous trip to meet her future husband, the king of a far away land. A story of adventure and honor, Bjarn must learn to embrace the emerging emotions he was trained to ignore and begin a new life filled with love.
