LIBRARY JOURNAL The Great Lakes provide a unique locale; there is no other place on earth that compares. There is a certain spirituality created with this combination of earth, water, and sky, all done up in broad strokes. These lakes are home to the Anishinaabe people, who take great inspiration from their surroundings and history. In the panorama of works presented in this book, we meet two important characters, Thunderbird and Underwater Panther, and we watch their development over time via their representation in works of art, from woven bags to Day-Glo paintings. We are also introduced to a variety of important Anishinaabe artists such as George Morrison, who inspired the title with his use of the Great Lakes horizon as a metaphor for the line between the known and the unknown, before and after the horizon. Or, Norval Morrisseau, whose work focuses on the transitional nature of things. Artists Christi Belcourt, Robert Houle, Daphne Odjig, and Blake Debassige introduce the reader to their cultural identity and remind us that"...sand and people change, but place remains the same." [This book accompanies an exhibition of the same title that opened in August, 2013 and continues through June, 2014 at the National Museum of the American Indian in New York, NY.--Ed.] Verdict A good book for armchair travelers and connoisseurs of the Great Lakes region, as well as seasoned scholars.--Nadine Dalton Speidel, Cuyahoga Cty.
