 Climate impacts history: upper Midwest October 18, 2008
Karl Bohnak's "So Cold a Sky" is a well-researched narrative quoting journals and stories from the Fr. Marquette era to the Edmund Fitzgerald. Our upper Midwest history is so closely tied to climate, weather, blips of warming and cooling over the centuries. One can easily picture the fur traders vs. the elements. An excellent format for the casual reader to understand.

Wonderfully written. As as lifetime "yooper", I know what they mean by the saying "only in the U.P., if you don't like the weather wait 5 minutes it will change". Great book Karl.
An incredible testimony to the endurance of Michigan's hardiest human inhabitants. January 6, 2007
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
Written by weather forecaster Karl Bohnak, So Cold A Sky: Upper Michigan Weather Stories is a compilation of true tales of upper Michigan's extreme weather conditions, from pioneers who braved bone-chilling temperatures to settle the northern part of the state to modern snowstorms and heatwaves. Written in a straightforward narrative style and illustrated with numerous black-and-white photographs and artworks, So Cold A Sky is an enthralling chronicle of the eternal story of man versus nature. An incredible testimony to the endurance of Michigan's hardiest human inhabitants.
