Following Atticus

Forty-Eight High Peaks, One Little Dog, and an Extraordinary Friendship

By: Tom Ryan

Narrated by: Tom Ryan

Following Atticus is the remarkable true story of a man and a dog embarking on the challenge of a lifetime. This is author Tom Ryan’s inspiring tale of how he and his miniature schnauzer companion, the “Little Buddha” Atticus M. Finch, attempted to scale all forty-eight of New Hampshire’s four thousand foot White Mountains twice in the dead of winter. It is a story of love, loss, and the resilience of the human and animal spirit that’s as thrilling as Into Thin Air and featuring the most endearing and unforgettable canine protagonist since Marley and Me.

WOW

This is an amazing story and made better by the authors narration. It made me smile, laugh, cry and wish I could share the experience.

Atticus' story comes to life!

I have followed Tom Ryan's blog for quite a while. I have both of his books, in hardback and audible. I highly recommend his fans listen to the audiobook! Hearing Tom's voice narrate his adventures brings the story to life in a whole new way. Hearing the rough Massachusetts accent as he describes his beloved dogs adds a different dimension of feeling to a beloved tale. His fear on the first winter hike that ended in darkness comes alive and you feel that fear in your soul. You will burst out laughing at his description of Atti wearing his winter bodysuit for the first time. One of my favorite passages! Even if people do look at me funny for laughing at apparently nothing since they can't hear what I'm listening to on my headphones. :0) Give a listen, you won't be disappointed!
