Acerca de esta escucha
No one expected the devastation Hurricane Helene would cause to the mountains of Western North Carolina.
It was a one-thousand-year event that caused massive flooding and triggered thousands of landslides. More than two hundred thirty souls lost their lives. Countless others are still missing.
This is my story of survival during and after Hurricane Helene in Burnsville, North Carolina. It was a time when there was no power, water, cell phones, or outside communication at all. We were trapped in a seven-mile radius. All the roads to leave were destroyed.
It is the story of a community coming together and helping one another survive in the worst imaginable times. Our beautiful mountains will never be the same, but we will survive.
We will rebuild, Come Hell or High Water.

A few years after quitting his job to follow an ill-advised dream of becoming a guide on the Colorado River, Kevin Fedarko was approached by his friend, the National Geographic photographer Pete McBride, with a vision as bold as it was harebrained. Together, they would embark on an end-to-end traverse of the Grand Canyon, a journey that, McBride promised, would be “a walk in the park.” Against his better judgment, Fedarko agreed to the scheme. The ensuing ordeal, which lasted more than a year, revealed a place that was richer, and far more complex, than anything the two men had imagined.

In August of 1914, the British ship Endurance set sail for the South Atlantic. In October 1915, still half a continent away from its intended base, the ship was trapped, then crushed in the ice. For five months, Sir Ernest Shackleton and his men, drifting on ice packs, were castaways in one of the most savage regions of the world. Lansing describes how the men survived a 1,000-mile voyage in an open boat across the stormiest ocean on the globe and an overland trek through forbidding glaciers and mountains.

If anyone could be considered a Russian counterpart to the infamous British double-agent Kim Philby, it was Oleg Gordievsky. The son of two KGB agents and the product of the best Soviet institutions, the savvy, sophisticated Gordievsky grew to see his nation's communism as both criminal and philistine. He took his first posting for Russian intelligence in 1968 and eventually became the Soviet Union's top man in London, but from 1973 on he was secretly working for MI6.

Steven Rinella (The MeatEater Podcast) brings to life the legendary wilderness exploits of men such as Jim Bridger, Jedidiah Smith, and Hugh Glass, who headed out to the Rocky Mountains to trap beavers in the decades following the Louisiana Purchase. Living off the land and dodging grizzly bears, these colorful characters carved out an existence defined by their relationships with Native people, their capacity to endure the most trying conditions, and their intimate knowledge of the western landscape.

Empire of the Summer Moon spans two astonishing stories. The first traces the rise and fall of the Comanches, the most powerful Indian tribe in American history. The second entails one of the most remarkable narratives ever to come out of the Old West: the epic saga of the pioneer woman Cynthia Ann Parker and her mixed-blood son, Quanah, who became the last and greatest chief of the Comanches.

A definite Must read
If you haven’t read or listened to the audio version of this book you should! A disaster can happen anywhere. This book is one woman’s first hand experience of what happened to her and her family from Burnsville, NC. How her and her husband (in their late 60’s mind you) try to help their disabled neighbor who is oxygen tank dependent. FEMA and our US Givenment let them down. It was volunteers and people like you and me that gave and supported people that needed immediate help.
If you have ever wondered what would happened if you were in a disaster, read this short book. It hits home because this happened in our Appalachian Mountains.
A government dependent nation is not what is needed. People who are kind and good hearted and who also have the common sense to stay prepared is what is needed.
Our government is so messed up. 🙄
Government agents were told to actually skip houses in her area that had any sign of supporting Trump. In a free nation? You are not allowed freedom of speech without being chastised by your own government entities??? Wow 😮
This area is still trying to recover. Yet the USA 🇺🇸 sends millions and billions of dollars 💵 to other countries and helps immigrants more than its own citizens in the southeastern mountains?
If you cannot help your own citizens, cut out the extra aide and help the middle and lower class citizens of your own country.
We have to be able to stand on our own before we can really help others. That’s basic common sense. Right?

I cried throughout this book… I live in Tennessee near the devastation in Newport… I was touched to the core with this rendition of her experiences… I want to meet her
