In the era of screens and devices, the average American spends 90 percent of their time indoors, and children are no exception. Not only does this phenomenon have consequences for kids’ physical and mental health, it jeopardizes their ability to understand and engage with anything beyond the built environment. Thankfully, with the right mind-set, families can find beauty, meaning, and connection in a life lived outdoors. Here, outdoors expert Steven Rinella shares the parenting wisdom he has garnered as a father whose family has lived amid the biggest cities and wildest corners of America.

For a time, Jimmy spent his expat days in Mexico unearthing pre-Columbian artifacts. Now he makes a living doing small trucking jobs and helping out with the occasional missing-person situation. But Jimmy’s laid-back lifestyle is being seriously imposed upon by a ninety-pound stalker named Louise. Add to this a sudden wave of hippies led by a murderous ex-con guru in search of psychic happenings, archaeologists unearthing (illegally) the Mayan tombs, and Louise and her weirdo husband’s quest for UFO sites, and Jimmy’s south-of-the-border existence is in danger.

Over half a century ago, John Rowlands set out by canoe into the wilds of Canada to survey land for a timber company. After paddling alone for several days, he came upon "the lake of my boyhood dreams", which he named Cache Lake because there was stored the best that the north had to offer-timber for a cabin; fish, game, and berries to live on; and the peace and contentment he felt he could not live without.

Publisher's summary

The lake residents are trying to get into the spirit of the season, but this is difficult to do, as scarce food and bitter cold keeps them close to their homes and in ever darking and gloomy moods.The government says the solar cycle will continue and to expect another CME, is this the truth, or is it propaganda to force people into the relocation camps?

This audiobook includes most of your old favorite original trilogy characters and includes a few renowned Internet Prepper personalities added to the story you might just recognize.
Good tidings to you and peace upon this this Earth we call home. Will the Solar Storm that NASA predicts in 2012-2013 happen? Science says it's very likely, Preppers prepare for anything anyway.

Last seen sleeping off his wedding night in the back of a 1951 International Harvester pickup, Michael Perry is now living in a rickety Wisconsin farmhouse. Faced with 37 acres of fallen fences and overgrown fields, and informed by his pregnant wife that she intends to deliver their baby at home, Perry plumbs his unorthodox childhood - his city-bred parents took in more than 100 foster children while running a ramshackle dairy farm - for clues to how to proceed as a farmer, a husband, and a father.

If John Gierach is living in a fool's paradise, then it's a paradise that his regular listeners will recognize and new fans will delight in discovering. Laced with the inimitable blend of wit and wisdom that have made him fly-fishing's foremost scribe, Fool's Paradise chronicles the fishing life in all its glory (catching your biggest fish ever) and squalor (being stranded in a tent during a soaking rainstorm). In Gierach's world, both experiences are valuable, and perhaps inevitable.

After 17 years at sea, Linda Greenlaw figured it was time to take a break from her career as a swordboat captain. She felt she needed to return to Isle au Haut - a tiny island seven miles from the Maine coast with a population of 70 year-round residents, 30 of whom were her relatives. She would pursue a simpler life; move back in with her parents and get to know them again; become a professional lobsterman; and find a guy, build a house, have kids, and settle down. But all doesn't go as planned.

Few people today can claim a living memory of Florida's frontier Everglades. Glen Simmons, who has hunted alligators, camped on hammock-covered islands, and poled his skiff through the mangrove swamps of the glades since the 1920s, is one who can. Together with Laura Ogden, he tells the story of backcountry life in the southern Everglades from his youth until the establishment of the Everglades National Park in 1947.

The beloved humorist and bestselling author returns with his most riotous collection of essays to date. Starting with his trademark outdoorsman's wit, Patrick F. McManus's newest collection ponders the strange allure of the RV, the existential implications of being lost, the baffling tendency of animals to outsmart those who wish to hunt them, and the singular pleasure of doubling the size of every fish one doesn't actually catch.

A season of holiday preparedness cheer
What did you love best about A Prepper Prepares for Christmas?
This I bet will soon be warmly regarded as the classic prepper Xmas tale. Ron captured the meaning of the holiday as well as how to prepare when disaster threatens. The characters are believable and the story is fun and filled with compassion and survival lore.
Who was your favorite character and why?
I like Boudreaux the Cajun for all seasons. He keeps things interesting with his antics.
Which character – as performed by Duane Sharp – was your favorite?
Duane actually sang the time honored Christmas carol featured in the book and did a amazing rendition that I will go back and listen to next holiday season.
If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
A Merry Prepper Christmas
Any additional comments?
This book is about Christmas arriving post disaster but the storyline makes it a good read anytime!

An important time to think about.
Would you consider the audio edition of A Prepper Prepares for Christmas to be better than the print version?
While I love the print version of all of Ron fosters books, I really enjoy the audio versions. His narrator is fantastic and it brings the stories more to life!
Any additional comments?
I love this because of the connection to Christmas. It's something I have thought about...wondering how these moments would be "celebrated" in such conditions. The book looks at it very well.
