Joe Meek was one of the West's irresistible characters. He was dashing, devil-may-care, cheeky, irreverent, and more fun than a playful grizzly cub. Initially, he covers his early life adventuring in the Rocky Mountains, California, and the Southwest. His firsthand account of fur-traders is priceless, as are his descriptions of the country, mountains, and the life of a mountain man. Then, Joe Meek's life as pioneer, sheriff, U.S. Marshall, and legislator is told in his own engaging voice. The turbulent years in the Northwest include the story of trappers, traders, missionaries, women, pioneers, and Native Americans that finally came together and created a state--Oregon.

From the River is written from an insider's perspective to address the issue of substance abuse among adventure athletes and outdoor enthusiasts. While there are numerous books written about recovery, very few that speak directly to the heart and soul of adventure athletes. From the River fills this gap. Outdoor enthusiasts seeking inspiration and practical guidance on how to win their battles against alcohol or drug abuse will appreciate the honesty, metaphors, and advice included in this guidebook for sobriety. Using whitewater kayaking as a metaphor for life, From the River is broken up into two sections - "Section I: Class Five Mind" and "Section II: From the River." In Section I, I call upon my background in psychology, education, and my struggle with substance abuse to offer science-based, practical advice on how to break the chains of addiction by developing a mindset based on five principles that every adventure athlete can relate to - Commitment, Courage, Humility, Flow, and Resilience. In Section II, I share lessons and anecdotes from my years on the river teaching cancer survivors and blind veterans how to whitewater kayak. This section also contains detailed and thrilling accounts of overcoming my mental challenges of paddling Class V whitewater. For many of the people rushing outside to find refuge from their stressful lives, addiction continues to be an anchor holding them down. As the sober movement becomes more mainstream, outdoor enthusiasts are looking for resources that they can relate to. From the River is written for this population by one of their own. A story of recovery and redemption, this book blends neuroscience, personal stories, and practical advice to the reader who is struggling with addiction.

This novel is the story of a boy's life, his struggles and his strange experiences with higher forces. This boy finds himself entangled in events beyond his comprehension and confronts the issues of a family tragedy when he loses his father. It begins in Atlanta Georgia when he was ten and ends in a small fictitious town named Sweet Creek when he was thirteen. Although it deals with the adventures of a ten-year-old boy, it's not a juvenile novel. It deals with issues like friendship, family issues and racism. It describes many adventures including some very strange experiences in a mysterious cave. It takes place during the decade of the sixties when racial issues in Georgia were common. The story that unfolds reflects the power of love to overcome obstacles. The Strange Adventures of Joe Freeman, Jr. is a unique and appealing piece of fiction with original ideas that would be of interest to readers of any age.

“What a wonderful idea for an adventure! Absolutely inspired, timely, and important.” —Alistair Humphreys, National Geographic Adventurer of the Year and author of The Doorstep Mile and Around the World by Bike Outdoor educator and field researcher Sara Dykman made history when she became the first person to bicycle alongside monarch butterflies on their storied annual migration—a round-trip adventure that included three countries and more than 10,000 miles. Equally remarkable, she did it solo, on a bike cobbled together from used parts. Her panniers were recycled buckets. In Bicycling with Butterflies, Dykman recounts her incredible journey and the dramatic ups and downs of the nearly nine-month odyssey. We’re beside her as she navigates unmapped roads in foreign countries, checks roadside milkweed for monarch eggs, and shares her passion with eager schoolchildren, skeptical bar patrons, and unimpressed border officials. We also meet some of the ardent monarch stewards who supported her efforts, from citizen scientists and researchers to farmers and high-rise city dwellers. With both humor and humility, Dykman offers a compelling story, confirming the urgency of saving the threatened monarch migration—and the other threatened systems of nature that affect the survival of us all.

About the Book The author was living in a Senior Independent Living Center in Severna Park MD, when the Covid 19 pandemic struck. Everything was locked down. She was bored. What better time to write about “what was it like back when” as her family had been urging her to do. She begins her book by inviting you to a holiday dinner, speaking to the reader, personally. Her keen sense of humor is obvious as she tells of growing up in a small town in the hills of western Maryland. It was 1924. In 1941, when attending college, WWII was raging on two fronts. She wanted to help. She spent 2 summers working at a Women’s Land Army Camp, harvesting crops. The army desperately needed Physical Therapists. Having the required biology credits, she accepted the Army’s offer for training, at an army hospital and became a Physical Therapist. She describes working with soldiers with amputated legs and peripheral nerve injuries. They were not pitied but encouraged to find humor even in such situations. She writes of her excitement and wonder as she travels to Norway, the Passion Play in Germany, the Canyons and Parks in the west. There are funny tales of tent camping with her brother and sister-in-law. She drove her “little red sable” and followed them, using a CB to communicate, (calling M & M, this is Red Sable, over) In her book Esther Davis Lang has made history interesting, funny and easy to read.
