The Story of Gunnar Hansen

COURAGE AND FAITH IN SPITE OF ADVERSITY

Hoping to reunite spiritually with his deceased wife, Kathleen, Gunnar Hansen, 73, embarks on a three-week solo canoe trip. The Quetico-Superior wilderness canoe country on the Minnesota Ontario border is the setting for this uplifting adventure story. After surviving near death from his wounds in Vietnam, Gunnar survives his canoe trip with the help of the mysterious Abigail Fraser.

"From college to Vietnam combat to career and family, joy and tragedy must be reconciled here. Yet through it all flows that one constant - a priceless spiritual connection to the canoe country . . . Quetico will always inspire both the imagination and the soul."

-Stuart Osthoff, publisher of The Boundary Waters Journal
