Derek Derek said: " I have only flipped through it so far. I am giving it 5 stars based on the photos alone. There must be over 100 color photos and maps. Great shots of cougars and other critters. "

“If you will die for me,
I will die for you
and our graves will be like two lovers washing
their clothes together
in a laundromat
If you will bring the soap
I will bring the bleach.”
Richard Brautigan

Anton Chekhov
“The world is, of course, nothing but our conception of it.”
Anton Chekhov

John Muir
“Any glimpse into the life of an animal quickens our own and makes it so much the larger and better in every way.”
John Muir

Pat Murphy
“I read books when I was a kid, lots of books. Books always seemed like magic to me. They took you to the most amazing places. When I got older, I realized I couldn’t find books that took me to all the places I wanted to go. To go to those places, I had to write some books myself.”
Pat Murphy, The Wild Girls

Nick Harkaway
“A woman who can eat a real bruschetta is a woman you can love and who can love you. Someone who pushes the thing away because it's messy is never going to cackle at you toothlessly across the living room of your retirement cottage or drag you back from your sixth heart attack by sheer furious affection. Never happen. You need a woman who isn't afraid of a faceful of olive oil for that.”
Nick Harkaway, The Gone-Away World
