Download or read book Outdoors Year Round written by Stephen C. Ausband and published by University of Virginia Press. This book was released on 2006 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To the west is a stretch of Interstate 95 running from the D.C. suburbs to the South Carolina state line. To the east is the Atlantic Ocean. What lies in between, a four-hundred-mile stretch of coastal country traversing Virginia and North Carolina, is home to some of the best hunting and fishing grounds on the East Coast. For the first time, those who love to hunt and fish this unique area have a book. In Outdoors Year Round Stephen Ausband looks at an uncommonly rich spectrum of outdoor opportunities. Readers will delight in accounts of night fishing in Pamlico Sound, surf casting at Chincoteague, and bottom fishing in Chesapeake Bay. Ausband also covers large and small game, including numerous waterfowl and upland bird hunts, deer hunting tips for both rifle and bow hunters, and the pleasures of tracking bear with a practiced guide. The book is laid out chronologically, its twelve chapters covering each of the twelve months, from duck hunting in January to fishing for gray trout at Christmastime. Each chapter features two trips that allow the reader to take full advantage of what each month has to offer. These custom itineraries, which include complete traveling instructions and pricing information, outline exceptional hunting and fishing opportunities that do not strain the pocketbook. But Ausband provides more than just great practical advice. He also relates his personal experiences as an avid outdoorsman, one who has heard the howl of the red wolf near the Alligator River and flushed black ducks on the Eastern Shore--as well as his thoughts on introducing newcomers, particularly young people, to the diversity of life in the tidal zone. This is a book sportsmen will reach for, month in and month out. With Outdoors Year Round, there is no off-season.

Download or read book Canada 98 written by Fodor's Travel Publications, Inc. Staff and published by Fodor's. This book was released on 1997 with total page 698 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "M. Night Shyamalan seemed to have it all. He'd directed a string of hit movies for Disney, beginning with the supernatural thriller The Sixth Sense, which had brought in over two billion dollars around the world. He had a beautiful wife, a loving family, a house with its own theater - the whole thing. People were calling him "the next Spielberg." Then he wrote a screenplay called Lady in the Water." "It was a fairy tale, really, an adaptation of a bedtime story he had invented for his young daughters. But when the bosses at Disney read the script, they told him they "didn't get it." Night felt he knew what they were really thinking: This guy has lost his mind. He boldly decided to leave the safety of his longtime filmmaking home and find new partners who would understand his odd story and idiosyncratic self. Night needed people who would help him make the most daring, ambitious, and deeply personal picture of his life." "He had panic attacks all along - while writing, while casting, while directing. For his hero, he didn't want a proven box-office star like Tom Hanks or Tom Cruise, but the brilliant but lesser-known Paul Giamatti. He wanted Lady filmed in a lush style by a wild man cinematographer that no director had ever tamed. And he wanted the movie to open on seven thousand screens across the world at the height of the summer popcorn season." "In The Man Who Heard Voices, Michael Bamberger takes you deep into Night's world during the creation of Lady in the Water. Based on nearly two years of exclusive, intimate reporting, Bamberger's book takes the cover off the secretive director's inspiring methods: handpicking a cast and crew he can mold into a temporary family; weighing on-the-set choices that will define his movie forever; and leading, even when he's lost. Most important, Bamberger penetrates the mind and artistic vision of a creative genius working at the peak of his powers, driven to bring his vision to the screen by the voices of creation - and self-doubt - that forever haunt him."--BOOK JACKET.
