Where the Green Light Shines: A Fifty-Year Odyssey from the Boundary Waters to the Far North is a unique glimpse into the world of arctic canoeing through the travels of one of North America’s most renowned paddlers, Bob O’Hara. A centuries-long story of adventure runs through the Boundary Waters. Stretching from northern Minnesota into the Canadian Shield, this expanse of lake-dappled land—long the domain of Indigenous tribes and fur traders—is the most popular wilderness destination in North America, with over 200,000 visitors dipping their paddles into its ancient waterways each year. Bridging the legendary arctic expeditions of the nineteenth century and the making of today’s recreational paddling tradition, Where the Green Light Shines is a fascinating chronicle of canoe exploration, told through the journeys of a true master of the craft, Bob O’Hara.
Ryan Rodgers is a freelance writer, a frequent paddler, and author of Winter’s Children: A Celebration of Nordic Skiing, also published by the University of Minnesota Press. He is a regular contributor to several regional publications and lives with his family in Duluth, Minnesota.
