Download or read book Starting Out In the Afternoon written by Jill Frayne and published by Vintage Canada. This book was released on 2010-07-07 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jill Frayne’s long-term relationship was ending and her daughter was about to graduate and leave home. She decided to pack up her life and head for the Yukon. Driving alone across the country from her home just north of Toronto, describing the land as it changes from Precambrian Shield to open prairie, Jill finds that solitude in the wilds is not what she expected. She is actively engaged by nature, her moods reflected in the changing landscape and weather. Camping in her tent as she travels, she begins to let go of the world she’s leaving and to enter the realm of the solitary traveller. The wilderness begins to work its magic on her, and she begins to feel a bond with the land and a kind of serenity. In Starting Out in the Afternoon, Frayne struggles to come to terms with her vulnerabilities and begins to find peace. In beautifully spare but potent language, she delivers an inspiring, contemplative memoir of the middle passage of a woman’s life and an eloquent meditation on the solace of living close to the wild land. Eventually what has begun as a three-month trip becomes a personal journey of several years, during which she is on the move and testing herself in the wilderness. She conquers her fears and begins a new relationship with nature, exuberant at becoming a competent outdoorswoman.
Download or read book Passage to Juneau written by Jonathan Raban and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2011-06-22 with total page 446 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The bestselling, award-winning author of Bad Land takes us along the Inside Passage, 1,000 miles of often treacherous water, which he navigates solo in a 35-foot sailboat, offering captivating discourses on art, philosophy, and navigation and an unsparing narrative of personal loss. "A work of great beauty and inexhaustible fervor." —The Washington Post Book World With the same rigorous observation (natural and social), invigorating stylishness, and encyclopedic learning that he brought to his National Book Award-winning Bad Land, Jonathan Raban conducts readers along the Inside Passage from Seattle to Juneau. But Passage to Juneau also traverses a gulf of centuries and cultures: the immeasurable divide between the Northwest's Indians and its first European explorers—between its embattled fishermen and loggers and its pampered new class.

Download or read book Friday Afternoon Courses written by Michael Banzhoff and published by Gatekeeper Press. This book was released on 2017-03-22 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "I've spent much of my career writing about sports as well as the civil rights movement. In Mike Banzhoff's new book, Friday Afternoon Courses: A Coach, Two Teams, and a University--which, like Friday Night Lights, takes place in Odessa, Texas--injustice is found on the golf course. A skilled, well-liked, and big-hearted coach from Pennsylvania, Banzhoff becomes the pawn of University of Texas of the Permian Basin officials who, for questionable or bizarre reasons, strive to bring him down. Based on such crimes as his "chicken soup" comment, the affable Banzhoff finds himself suspended, fired, jailed, and plastered on the TV news--the scandalized golf coach at UTPB. This book is Mike's side of the story. It's riveting reading for anyone touched by this scandal--and anyone who despises injustice." --David Aretha, award-winning author and editor of such books as Arnold Palmer: A Tribute to an American Icon and Martin Luther King Jr. and the 1963 March on Washington
