  Faced with an empty nest, stagnant jobs, and an economy in freefall, Kim Brown Seely and her husband decided to embark on a grand adventure. On an impulse, they purchased a sailboat, learned to sail, and set off toward untamed wilderness in search of the elusive blonde Kermode bear that only lives in a secluded forest in the Pacific Northwest.  
  Out on the open water, the couple faces physical challenges brought on by weather, geography, and inexperience. They also grapple with the mixed emotions of parents who, now untethered from their former life, must envision a new future for themselves.  
  The author’s own lyrical voice shines through in this audio edition of her award-winning memoir, bringing us aboard the Heron to share in her voyage of discovery.  
  First published in hardcover by Sasquatch Books in 2019, Uncharted was a Nancy Pearl Book Award Finalist 2020 and a Silver Nautilus Book Award Winner 2019.

  In order to develop a life that is self-sufficient and happy, free from the influence of traditional systems, the book "Thriving Off-Grid" is an invaluable resource that should not be overlooked. The purpose of this book is to provide a step-by-step guide to achieving independence in terms of energy, water, food production, shelter, and essential skills. The program is intended for people who have no prior experience as well as those who have some. Each chapter places an emphasis on practical alternatives, such as growing your own food and constructing a home that is both energy-efficient and sturdy. Examples of these options are provided throughout the book. The utilization of renewable energy sources and the maintenance of a sustainable water supply are two more themes that are discussed. 
  A sustainable style of life is one that reduces reliance on external sources and develops a close connection with parts of the natural world. Living off the grid requires recognizing both the benefits and the problems of such a way of life. Not only does this book provide an emphasis on practical solutions, but it also places an emphasis on resiliency, adaptation, and the mindset that is required to survive while being independent. The book "Thriving Off-Grid" equips you with the resources and information you require to achieve success, regardless of whether you are motivated by the desire to be a responsible steward of the environment, to achieve financial independence, or to achieve personal empowerment.

  Cougar Bay Nature Preserve -...

  Fighting for Ecological HeritageIn 1992, a Hawaiian developer proposed a subdivision on Cougar Bay's northern shore, just two miles south of Coeur d'Alene. Dedicated, tenacious locals took on the seemingly impossible goal of stopping the "Cougar Beach" development. Unlikely allies--environmental activists and a cantankerous landowner--banded together. Private and public groups stepped up. In 1997, The Nature Conservancy purchased major shoreline areas and created a nature preserve. The sanctuary remained unaltered until more private land was gifted to the Bureau of Land Management and Kootenai County. After thirteen years of heroic perseverance, the Cougar Bay Nature Preserve became a reality. Idaho Wildlife Viewing Guide calls it one of the state's best wildlife viewing sites. Theresa Shaffer chronicles the battle to preserve this oasis for locals, visitors and wildlife alike.

  The Present Illness - American...

  Martin F. Shapiro

  Health care reform efforts are difficult to achieve and have been historically undermined by their narrow scope. In The Present Illness, Martin F. Shapiro, MD, PhD, MPH, weaves together history, sociology, extensive research, and his own experiences as a physician to explore the broad range of afflictions impairing US health care and explains why we won't be able to fix the system without making significant changes across society. With a sharp eye and ready humor, Shapiro dissects the ways all groups participating—clinicians and their organizations, medical schools and their faculty, hospitals and clinical corporations, scientists and the National Institutes of Health, insurers and manufacturers, governments and their policies, and also patients and the public—shape and reinforce a dysfunctional system. Shapiro identifies three major problems stymieing reform: commodification of care; values, expectations, unmet needs, attitudes, and personal limitations of participants; and toxic relationships and communication among these groups.Shapiro lays out a sweeping agenda of concrete actions to address the many factors contributing to the system's failings. Highlighting the interconnectedness of both the problems and potential solutions, he warns that piecemeal reform efforts will continue to be undermined by those who believe they have something to gain from the status quo. Although overhauling our health care system is daunting, Shapiro nonetheless concludes that we must push forward with a far more comprehensive effort in all sectors of health care and throughout society to create a system that is humane, effective, and just.
