Анотація: Most people know it simply as a line that runs the width of North America in their atlases. But for Mrs. Edward Gosselin., the border is something more: It runs right through her living room, giving her two addresses, one in Vermont and one in Quebec. Historians may note that 2 wars, 17 treaties and other agreements, and 142 years went into creating the 4,000-mile-long frontier between southern Canada and the United States. For canoeists in the remote lake country on the Minnesota-Ontario line, however, the border is an immediate fact: A customs station in the middle of yhe wilderness requires surprised boaters to pull up and produce their papers.
