JEFF FORESTER, a writer and teacher, will spend three weeks in Cornwall, England, to conduct research and write a book of historical fiction, a novel titled North Country Digs. The book focuses on a Cornish woman, a Druid, who is a pioneer in the Boundary Waters Wilderness in Northern Minnesota. She filters her understanding of her environment, family, and friends through an animistic belief system. Forester will visit the Museum of Witchcraft in Boscastle, the National Mining Museum in Turo, the Poldark Mine, the Cornish Earth Mysteries Group, the Tolven Stone, the Merry Maidens of Boleigh, and the Hurlers of St. Cleer, among other sites.
