Summary: The Chippewa, or Ojibwa, Indians were the first proprietors of the forest stretching across the northern parts of Michigan, Wisconsin and Minnesota. The Wisconsin pineries in the post-Civil War period are the setting for these reminiscences of life on the lumberjack frontier. Louie Blanchard, born in 1872, grew up on the Chippewa River and went to work in the pineries at the age of 14. He retired to farm his homestead in the Cutover Country in 1912. He became known in the region as a great storyteller, and his recollections of lumberjack lore, tall tales and personal experiences constitute an informal social history of the lumberjack frontier.
