George S. Bliss

His remarkable journals give the reader a glimpse of life at various wilderness camps from a simpler, bygone era. With extraordinary warmth and humor, Bliss recalls the people he met, the fish he did and didn’t catch, the amazing journeys each season and the bountiful meals over which he waxes almost poetic. We hope you enjoy this look back in time and hope the Journals inspire you to visit some of these locations where the spirit of George S. Bliss lives on.
