Book excerpt: If you breathe and have a pulse, you NEED this book. -Cody Lundin Cody Lundin, director of the Aboriginal Living Skills School in Prescott, Arizona, shares his own brand of wilderness wisdom in this highly anticipated new book on commonsense, modern survival skills for the backcountry, the backyard, or the highway. It is the ultimate book on how to stay alive-based on the principal of keeping the body's core temperature at a lively 98.6 degrees. In his entertaining and informative style, Cody stresses that a human can live without food for weeks, and without water for about three days or so. But if the body's core temperature dips much below or above the 98.6 degree mark, a person can literally die within hours. It is a concept that many don't take seriously or even consider, but knowing what to do to maintain a safe core temperature when lost in a blizzard or in the desert could save your life. Lundin delivers the message with wit, rebellious humor, and plenty of backcountry expertise. Cody Lundin and his Aboriginal Living Skills School have been featured in dozens of national and international media sources, including Dateline NBC, CBS News, USA Today, The Donny and Marie Show, and CBC Radio One in Canada, as well as on the cover of Backpacker magazine. When not teaching for his own school, he is an adjunct faculty member at Yavapai College and a faculty member at the Ecosa Institute. Cody is the only person in Arizona licensed to catch fish with his hands, and lives in a passive solar earth home sixty miles from Prescott, Arizona.

Book excerpt: It was 1945 when three-year-old Cynthia traveled with her father and mother to create their home on his family’s working and dude ranch, nestled under Buck Mountain in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. For little Cindy, White Grass Ranch became a magical spot within an easy horseback ride to sparkling glaciated lakes and wildlife habit. A resourceful only child, her prominent childhood teachers and friends were the animals on the ranch and in the surrounding mountains. Her horse, Eva, provided her with the means to travel deep into the wildnerness, where she believed God must have lived. In a fascinating retelling of her childhood experiences on the ranch, Cynthia shares true stories that reveal insight into her unique coming-of-age journey as she embraced Wyoming’s resourceful spirit. While dealing with flawed parent-child relationships, she details how she developed a variety of coping strategies, especially when she learned of a family secret that would change everything and lead her in a new direction. Wyoming Ranch Girl is a memoir that reveals a girl’s lonely childhood experiences, challenges, and knowledge of animals that eventually brought her to wilderness work and a life of independence.
