5.0 out of 5 stars
An unexpected joy,
Robert Travers is best known for "Anatomy of a Murder" which was made into a movie, and truth be told, I thought that was the only book he'd written. I was pleased to find out that I was wrong when I stumbled across "Laughing Whitefish". Having lived in the Upper Peninsula for some time, I was taken back to those days through the writing of Travers. He never fails to create an image in your mind with his words. Additionally, the mystery and courtroom drama of this book would be a delight for anyone - even if they hadn't visited the particular locations. Travers is a joy to read, and I was happy to have found this book.

Traver's second best novel,
This review is from: Laughing Whitefish (Hardcover)
Robert Traver is the pen name of John Voelker, who was actually a Justice of the Michigan Supreme Court. While Anatomy of a Murder is his best known book (and the greatest American trial movie ever), Laughing Whitefish is just as intriguing and amusing, and an inspiring legal drama as well. This story of the quest of a native American to reclaim valuable mineral rights in the upper penninsula of Michigan is filled with uinforgettable characters.

Laughing Whitefish: a brief review,
By Wolf Lahti (Allen, Washington, United States) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Laughing Whitefish (Hardcover)
The story is nothing that will put you on the edge of your seat, but the characters are well-drawn enough to be engaging and make you care about the outcome. Sense of place is well established, in typical Traver style, and his fans will not be disappointed.
