Anyone who has been around Lake Superior knows the power and inspiration of its beauty. The calm and peaceful serenity it can bring in the summertime, or the shiver of awe it can bring during a violent November gale. Amethyst and Agate: Poems of Lake Superior contains 70 poems by contemporary poets, all who live near and/or have been inspired by Lake Superior. A gallery of full-color images also graces the pages. Any poetry lover will enjoy this book.—Breana Roy
