David and Maddie have created a lit trip based on Ernest Hemingway's short story "The Big Two-Hearted River" written in 1925. This story recounts a trout fishing trip near Seney in the eastern Upper Peninsula of Michigan. It speculates on the location of Hemingway's 1919 trip to the Seney area by comparing text in the short story to analysis by Prof. Jack Jobst and weaves details about a family camping/canoeing trip on the Fox River in August 2010 with information about the science of stream ecology, entomology, and water resource management.
