Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It has been said by many anglers-'The worst day fishing is better than the best day working'. In fact, I have used the phrase a time or two myself when the waters of Alaska were beckoning. However, after a recent family fishing trip that nearly reduced the male population of my family by six members, work has taken on a sage and comfortable appeal. By profession, I am a rescue pilot in the state of Alaska, regularly saving people in peril. This line of work has never fallen into the catagories of safe and comfortable so as you might guess, this fishing trip story demands to be told.[From back cover].

Book Synopsis Listen to the Land by : Dennis Boyer
Download or read book Listen to the Land written by Dennis Boyer and published by Terrace Books. This book was released on 2009-04-22 with total page 207 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inspired by years of talking with farmers, foragers, loggers, tribal activists, seed savers, fishers, railroaders, and nature lovers of all stripes, Dennis Boyer has created in Listen to the Land a fascinating communal conversation that invites readers to ponder their own roles in grassroots environmentalism. The nearly fifty voices that Boyer recreates here cross genders, generations, and geography. They include an Ojibwe leader contemplating nuclear waste, a houseboat dweller, a woman sharing her skills in gathering edible plants, a caboose-tender, a Milwaukeean fighting urban blight—even a recluse who shoots out streetlights. Each of the extraordinarily varied perspectives that Boyer recreates here considers the question, How do I interact with the Earth? Each has something important to say that expands our understanding of conservation and environmentalism. Listen to the Land encourages you to read a conversation or two and then go outside and start one of your own.

Download or read book A Common Fate written by Joseph Cone and published by Macmillan. This book was released on 1995 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Though life on earth is the history of dynamic interactions between living things and their surroundings, certain powerful groups would have us believe that nature exists only for our convenience. One consequence of such thinking is the apparent fate of the Pacific salmon - a key resource and preeminent symbol of America's wildlife - which is today threatened with extinction. Drawing on abundant data from natural science, Pacific coast culture, and a long association with key individuals on all sides of the issue, Joseph Cone employs a clear narrative voice to tell the human and natural history of an environmental crisis in its final chapter. As inevitable as the November rains, countless millions of wild salmon returned from the ocean to spawn in the streams of their birth. In the wake of an orgy of dam building and habitat destruction, the salmon's majestic abundance has been reduced to a fleeting shadow. Neglect is the word the author uses to describe more recent losses, "by exactly the ones - state and federal fish managers - who should have acted". To signal a new awareness that action is needed, scientists charged with restocking the Columbia River Basin are receiving significant support, while ordinary citizens are beginning to recognize the relationship between cheap power and the absences of chinook, coho, sockeye, and other species from the coasts of Oregon and Washington and from Idaho's Snake River. As desperate as the salmon's future appears, the book is not an elegy for a lost resource. Instead, it bears witness to hope. In addition to concrete plans for the wild salmon's renewal, the reader will hear a growing chorus of informed individuals of differing values and beliefswho recognize that our fate is inextricably bound to the salmon's; for many it is a new understanding.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “In the pulse-pounding thriller This Guy’s the Limit, author Michael E. Petrie weaves a tangled web of lust, greed, and murder among the tropical paradise and seedy underbelly of California and Hawaii beach communities.” —The Daily “This Guy’s the Limit is a must-read for fans of page-turning drama. Petrie delivers a cast of complex characters and a nuanced examination of the lengths people will go to satisfy their deepest desire.” —South Bay Review By all appearances, Connie Cantu-Gambil would seem to have the perfect life: living aboard a yacht in Honolulu and married to a man who is both loving and rich. But Connie has been spending a good amount of time fantasizing about becoming a wealthy widow and now intends to make that a reality. Eddy Emsch, owner of a bucolic California vineyard, also appears to be living the perfect life. But Eddy has a secret. A kinky dark side he cannot rein in. When his fingerprints are found at a murder scene on Oahu, he becomes the subject of a police investigation—one that ultimately extends to California, connecting his winery to a drug smuggling operation. Handsome, charismatic criminal defense lawyer Vincent Scatucci—known for a clientele of drug lords and high-priced madams—is hired to represent the vineyard owner now accused of drug smuggling, but quickly finds himself in over his head when the crimes escalate to blackmail and murder. Ben Harding—a California lawyer who abandoned his career to become an aging beach bum—experiences a reality check that changes the direction of his life forever, sending him hurtling through a tormentous underworld littered with heartbreak and death. Book Two of the Ben Harding Mystery series, This Guy’s The Limit, set in Hawaii and California, is a story of intrigue, murder, drugs, and sexual blackmail drawn from the author’s experiences and observations over a thirty-year legal career. This story will keep readers turning pages to the very end.

His father, Todd Burpo, went on to write Heaven Is for Real, which has sold over one million copies- deservedly so. Only a cynic would believe that an evangelical pastor with outstanding medical bills and a child who had heard 52,000 Bible stories might be tempted to do the following: 1) Prompt the boy with leading questions 2) Write a book with a professional author, and 3) Make big bucks from it But this is Skip Shmuley's story, not the Burpos'. Skip is a middle-aged husband who faced death during a vasectomy gone terribly wrong. At first, he rose skyward . . .

Download or read book Distancing written by Martin Kantor MD and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2003-11-30 with total page 295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kantor focuses on a misunderstood but common condition that brings severe and pervasive anxiety about social contacts and relationships. He offers psychotherapists a specific method for helping avoidants overcome their fear of closeness and commitments, and offers a guide for avoidants themselves to use for developing lasting, intimate, anxiety-free relationships. Fear of intimacy and commitment keeps avoidants from forming close, meaningful relationships. Types of avoidants can include confirmed bachelors, femme fatales, and people who form what appear to be solid relationships only to tire of them and leave with little warning, often devastating their partners/victims. Kantor takes us through the history of this disorder, and into clinical treatment rooms, to see and hear how avoidants think, feel, and recover. He offers psychotherapists a specific method for helping avoidants overcome their fear of closeness and commitments, and offers a guide for avoidants themselves to use for developing lasting, intimate, anxiety-free relationships. The avoidance reduction techniques presented in this book recognize that avoidants not only fear criticism and humiliation, but also fear being flooded by their feelings and being depleted if they express them. Acceptance is feared as much as rejection, because avoidants fear compromising their identity and losing personal freedom. Kantor describes the different therapeutic emphasis required for the four types of avoidants, including those who are withdrawn due to shyness and social phobia, such as people who intensely fear public speaking; those who relate easily, widely, and well, but cannot sustain relationships due to fear of closeness; those whose restlessness causes them to leave steady relationships, often without warning; and those who grow dependent on—and merge with—a single lover or family member and avoid relating to anyone else.
