Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tragedy erupts in an instant. Lives are shattered irrevocably. A young man drives off into the night, leaving a girl injured, perhaps fatally so. From that cliffhanger opening, Leipciger takes readers back and forward in time to tell the haunting story of one family's unraveling in rural logging country where the land is still the economic backbone. Like the novels of Annie Proulx, this debut is rooted in richly detailed nature writing and sharply focused on small town mores and regional culture. Marrying the propulsive story of a father and son who, in the wake of catastrophe, must confront their private demons to reach for redemption with an evocative meditation on our environmental legacy, The Mountain Can Wait introduces Leipciger as an exciting talent.

Book excerpt: Alf Howard sailed with legends of the heroic era of Antarctic exploration and became a legend in his own lifetime. He was the last surviving member of Sir Douglas Mawson's 1929-1931 British, Australian and New Zealand Antarctic Research Expedition (BANZARE) and was also the last survivor to have served aboard the coal-fired three-masted wooden ship Discovery, built for Captain Robert Falcon Scott's 1901-1904 Antarctic odyssey. As a young chemist and hydrologist on board the Discovery, going south with Mawson was the catalyst for his long-distinguished career with the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO). Subsequently, at the University of Queensland, he was awarded degrees in physics and linguistics and completed a PhD in psychology. For more than twenty years he designed computer programs and provided statistical advice to postgraduate students and staff until he was 97. The call of Antarctica was too strong to resist and during the 1990s he returned four times.

Book excerpt: The Bright Survivor is a memoir offered in a unique second-person, mother-to-son approach. The mother provides a detailed story about how her son grew up in a small family of the first-generation immigrants in Canada. Her son was born in Toronto when she and her husband were in their forties, finishing school and starting a new career. When they immigrated to Canada after his birth, the immigration officer asked them to “make sure that he gets all that a Canadian deserves.” It took twenty years. The family of three explored and overcame several learning curves. For many years, being with his parents was rare for the boy because his parents always worked full-time. He grew up with Chinese nannies, home cares, after-school programs, and extra-curricular lessons. For summer and winter breaks, he was busy with camps and sometimes family trips. In his primary school years, the boy was fine but had little patience in group settings and split-grade classes. His parents pursued a better fit for his education. He eventually felt in the right place with the International Baccalaureate program at high school and went to a co-op program for his college education to become an engineer. His mother wondered sometimes if the home she had provided could have been more relaxing and better appreciated. Her generation never had the time or resources. Her version of his childhood is marked by persistent effort in a diverse world, always with an open mind and often with love and happiness.

Will someone please, please help me save my son?” —Edward Moats, Tarpon Springs, FL. A young boy leaves a message: “Hey! This is an 11-year-old kid named Jacob. One of my friends was driving by and found this book on the ground. They picked it up. It said You Can Survive! by Jere Franklin. They gave me the book. I have read this book over, and over, and over. It just speaks to me. There’s a lot of problems going on in my family … like … my Dad is gone … and other stuff [obvious emotional turmoil in Jacob’s unsteady voice ending in a heavy sigh]. I just wanted to thank you for your book. It really means a lot to me.” If there was a plan whereby you could avoid most disasters, wouldn’t you want to know about it? If you would, then you need to read this book. It includes chapters on the joys of country living, medical preparation for the end time, wilderness survival, log cabin building, a garden-to-kitchen cookbook, a financial plan, and inspirational stories of faith. In the near future, this information will be invaluable. “Any reader who applies himself diligently to this book will be rewarded and uplifted. A sincere and practical outline for survival and revival.” —Lincoln Steed, Editor, Liberty magazine.
