At the beginning of his memoir Life Lived Wild, Adventures at the Edge of the Map, Rick Ridgeway tells us that if you add up all his many expeditions, he’s spent over five years of his life sleeping in tents: “And most of that in small tents pitched in the world’s most remote regions.” It’s not a boast so much as an explanation. Whether at elevation or raising a family back at sea level, those years taught him, he writes, “to distinguish matters of consequence from matters of inconsequence.” He leaves it to his readers, though, to do the final sort of which is which."--Amazon.

"For anyone even remotely interested in American literature and journalism, Not So Wild a Dream is a must-read, and a joy."– Dan Rather In this captivating first-person account, Eric Sevareid describes in thrilling detail his time as a journalist covering international affairs during World War II. From a young man in North Dakota to an instrumental figure in establishing CBS as an international news organization, Sevareid witnessed the shaping of America’s journalistic landscape. His experiences provide an invaluable glimpse into the trials and tribulations of a dogged reporter. With current distrust of the press on the rise, Sevareid’s insight is poignant and all the more necessary. "The book is an excellent sketch of the war's progress, and a thoughtful personal record of Mr. Sevareid's adventures--one of the most far ranging war correspondent journals yet published."– Library Journal

AUTHOR’S NOTE: I grew up on Westerns. My grandfather didn’t enjoy them, he was more of a NASCAR fan, but my grandmother did. She was industrious, as a lot of southern women who grew up in the depression era were. I remember a Sunday afternoon matinee on one of the three networks they got on their television that showed a Western each week. After church, she would take my brother and I to Big Chef for burgers and fries, and then back to her house for homemade chocolate pie or some other treat. Then we’d sit on the couch to watch a movie at 2:00. Even as she watched, she was busy knitting an afghan or sewing a quilt, or shelling peas from her garden. In the fall and winter, we would spend an hour gathering pecans from their six pecan trees, and she would shell them while we watched the westerns. Her favorite was Seven Brides for Seven Brothers, and when it came on, she would roast the pecans with sugar and butter so we had special treats to snack on during the movie.
