Tim Mulherin is the author of Sand, Stars, Wind, & Water: Field Notes from Up North, a collection of nonfiction essays and stories chronicling his outdoor adventures over the past 30+ years in northwest lower Michigan. In his talk, he'll cover the predominant themes in his book: identity, place, and belonging; an enduring best friendship; and the increasing interest in and pressure on Michigan — especially the Great Lakes regions — from visitors and how to respect this great national treasure and the people who call it home. Books will be available for sale and signing at the end of the program.
