Acerca de esta escucha
A charming and delightful reminiscence of growing up loving the woods, waters, fields, and fauna of Massachusetts by Michael Tougias, New York Times best-selling author of The Finest Hours, Overboard!, and Fatal Forecast.
Untamed. Unsupervised. Uncontrolled.
Boyhood in the 1960s and ‘70s was a time for exploration and mischief. Author Michael Tougias found more than his share of misadventures in the woods and on the water: some life-threatening, but others innocently hilarious.
Over time - and after reading a multitude of adventure books - these experiences took shape in his quest to be a mountain man, owning a cabin in the forest and living off the land. Part of that dream would come true, but only after a family tragedy that shook his world and forced changes in his life.
This is also a story of a complex and strained relationship between father and son, the efforts at understanding, and ultimately respect and devotion.
In The Waters Between Us Tougias channels Bryson’s A Walk in the Woods to mix laugh out loud humor with insight into the natural world through the eyes of a curious boy.

At the turn of the 20th century, in a rural stretch of the Pacific Northwest, a reclusive orchardist, William Talmadge, tends to apples and apricots as if they were loved ones. A gentle man, he's found solace in the sweetness of the fruit he grows and the quiet, beating heart of the land he cultivates. One day, two teenage girls appear and steal his fruit from the market; they later return to the outskirts of his orchard to see the man who gave them no chase. Feral, scared, and very pregnant, the girls take up on Talmadge's land and indulge in his deep reservoir of compassion.

Sand and stone are Earth's fragmented memory. Each of us, too, is a landscape inscribed by memory and loss. One life-defining lesson Lauret Savoy learned as a young girl was this: the American land did not hate. As an educator and Earth historian, she has tracked the continent's past from the relics of time; but the paths of ancestors toward her - paths of free and enslaved Africans, colonists from Europe, and peoples indigenous to this land - lie largely eroded and lost. In this provocative and powerful mosaic of personal journeys and historical inquiry across a continent and time.

But when the warden drives away, Emmett discovers that two friends from the work farm have hidden themselves in the trunk of the warden's car.

Fiver could sense danger. Something terrible was going to happen to the warren; he felt sure of it. They had to leave immediately. So begins a long and perilous journey of survival for a small band of rabbits. As the rabbits skirt danger at every turn, we become acquainted with the band, its humorous characters, and its compelling culture, complete with its own folk history and mythos. Fiver’s vision finally leads them to Watership Down, an upland meadow. But here they face their most difficult challenges of all.

Smith tells the story of three generations of the MacIveys, a Florida family who battle the hardships of the frontier to rise from a dirt-poor Cracker life to the wealth and standing of real estate tycoons.

J.R. Moehringer grew up captivated by a voice. It was the voice of his father, a New York City disc jockey who vanished before J.R. spoke his first word. Sitting on the stoop, pressing an ear to the radio, J.R. would strain to hear in that plummy baritone the secrets of masculinity and identity. Though J.R.'s mother was his world, his rock, he craved something more, something faintly and hauntingly audible only in The Voice.

As a nature lover this book was a wonderful experience. The author pays loving tribute to his family and his life experiences in the wilderness. I wish more kids grew up like this. Nature heals.

Well written and narrated
Seems to be an honest well written autobiography of sorts. I appreciate the absence of foul language and indecent sexual scenes in spite of the potential for them to be exploited. Characters like the author’s father inspire me to believe that God gives us the ability to go beyond what we’re able to accomplish without Him. As long as we are alive He is still here with us. All in all it was a good read.

Great book!
I loved this book. I'm a 69 year old woman but could still relate to this book so much. My brother and I grew up in a family where the outdoors and nature were a huge part. We camped and fished and also spent summers riding our bikes and exploring around our home. Building forts in the woods and getting involved in all kinds of antics. We also had parents who were very supportive and lucky for us even spent more time with us in nature. It was a joy to have this book bring back so many memories. I think if more kids these days had the opportunity to grow up in that kind of an environment we'd have a whole lot fewer problems in this world today. It provides a grounding like no other that helps throughout your life. As for the speed of the narration, it was no problem for me. I found that it gave me time to reflect on what was being said and gave me a sense of relaxation and peace.

Ok
All in all the story was interesting, however I thought it would benefit from less animal cruelty stories as well as an ending that tied things up. The author was the narrator of the book and his voice is very boring and humdrum. I would not listen to another one of his books if he is the narrator.

Enjoyed every single word!!
I grew up in the same time period and parts of it could have actually been written about me! Loved that the writer was the person telling me the story. Michael..you took me back to places I've forgotten from my childhood..I thank you for that! Can't wait to hear your other books!!!
