The Kindred Path Steve Hazell

The Kindred Path tells the story of a remarkable 22-year friendship. Brought together by a shared love of music, reunited through political action, Bob Weitzel and Steve Hazell were in and out of each other's lives until Weitzel's final quest, his solo kayak journey on Lake Superior. The Kindred Path provides a history of the Green Apple Folk Music Society, reflections from the author's 17 years as a folk music performer, a participant's view of the 2011 protests at the State Capitol in Madison, and an account of Weitzel's fatal Lake Superior challenge, based on the journal he kept during the voyage. The book ends with the author's odyssey of discovery to gain closure with the death of a friend.
