But as writer and naturalist Henry Beston reminds us, this great passageway carries much more than historical significance to the wildlife of its waters and banks. Travelling along the river more than 70 years ago, Beston expertly observed its natural environment as he researched the greatest survey of the land and its people that had yet been written. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIllustrated with sketches from the Group of Seven's A.Y.
