Reviews of Northern Waters

“Grover courageously confronts our ugly heritage of rapine and destruction, but moves beyond it to celebrate resilience, survival, and the increasing momentum for restoration.” —Washington Post Book World

“Alternately witty and solemn, self-deprecating and awed, Grover narrates the experience in taut, silvery prose, tosses out bits of information like beautifully tied flies, slides through pools of ponderings about fear, danger, and desire.” —Minneapolis Star Tribune

“Throughout, Grover manages the difficult trick of simultaneously celebrating both fish and fisher, nature and humanity.  Best of all is her lyrical prose, supported by dry wit and simple eloquence.” —Booklist

“At once spirited and meditative, an inviting exploration of flowing water and its denizens.” —Kirkus Reviews
