Critic reviews

"It's clear that Mikel B. Classen knows and loves the Lake Superior area of Michigan and brings it to life in a delightful way. If you want frequent laughs, unusual characters who jump off the page, and the fruit of a highly creative mind, you’ve got to read this little book." (Bob Rich, author, Looking Through Water)

"Michigan's Upper Peninsula is a unique place in this world, and Mikel's lovely little book, "Tales," makes that clear. Mikel has long been recognized as a leading proponent of all the wonderful attributes of the Upper Peninsula, and currently he serves as the Managing Editor of the UP Reader. So, seeing him tackle this project does not surprise me. But what I did find exciting is the electricity he captures on every page, and the energy he uses to express it. My father was a lumberjack, moonshiner and "gunslinger" in the UP a century ago," (Michael Carrier from Modern History Press)

Horrible book

Stories were incredibly boring! I would not recommend this book for any age. I’m from that area and it wasn’t interesting at all!
