Duluth Author Ryan Rodgers: Where the Green Light Shines

Zenith Bookstore welcomes Duluth author Ryan Rodgers to share his new book, Where the Green Light Shines: A Fifty-Year Odyssey from the Boundary Waters to the Far North. Ryan will talk about the book and answer questions from the audience. This is a great event for all nature lovers, BWCA lovers and canoeists.

The book is a 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.

Ryan Rodgers is a freelance writer, a frequent paddler and author of Winter’s Children: A Celebration of Nordic Skiing.,
