Excerpt from Sketches in Duneland

In the dune region that extends along the wild coasts of Lake Michigan, and in the back country contiguous to it, is a land of allurement.

The strange human characters, whose little drift-wood shanties are scattered along the shore, and among the sandhills, and whose isolated retreats are further inland, are difficult to become acquainted with, except in a most casual way. They look upon the chance wayfarer with suspicion and disfavor.

Readers of "The Dune Country" will remember "Old Sipes," "Happy Cal," and "Catfish John," the old derelicts living along the beach, further accounts of whose "doin's" are in the following pages. As portraits of these worthies have already appeared, they are omitted in this volume. New characters are introduced, who, it is hoped, will be as cordially welcomed.

The region is of important historical interest.
