Book Description
Perfumed breezes from the whispering tamaracks hide secrets and carry only unanswered questions throughout the wide valley that was once filled with Cryus Wynter’s greatest hopes, dreams, and ambitions but now only with questions. How could such a skilled breeder, known to be prudent and cautious around the breed he loved, have been gored by his own prize bull? And what of the once prominent family heritage now apparently shaken and in such discord that the favored son has left? It is in the midst of this perplexity that Lydee finds herself in an arranged marriage to the younger son and fearfully struggles to deal with the dismay of dark family secrets until finally she is driven to the far plains over Idaho’s wild Snake River for answers—and there’s a final vindication even for the noble bulls!

Book Description
When Max Geist plans a rugged canoe trip on the rivers of Northern Minnesota, fifteen-year-old David fears that dealing with his father--an opinionated, stubborn, novice outdoorsman--will be the roughest part of their journey. Little does he know that once he enters the unforgiving wilderness his life, and that of his family, will be irrevocably changed. At the start of their trip, David's father and younger sister, Janie, briefly cross paths with a group of men who, unbeknownst to the Geist family, are on the lam. Fearing the family may have learned too much about them, the outlaws decide to track down the unknown man and his daughter and, if need be, silence them. When they find the family's campsite, David is away; he returns to find his father in a life-or-death struggle with one man and his sister being savagely attacked by another. David, extraordinarily strong for his age, saves Max and Janie's lives and, in the process, kills a man. But the second man escapes, and David knows he has a partner . . . and that it is only a matter of time before they come back to finish the job they started. The outlaws become the only predators to fear in the wild as the Geist family is hunted down like animals--and uninjured David is the family's only hope for survival. As they tread through the snow-covered rocky terrain in search of safety, what began as a family bonding trip becomes a test of David's mental and physical limits, a journey into manhood and the responsibilities that come with it. The Devil You Know combines the breathtaking intensity of a first-rate literary thriller with the complexity and poignancy of a classic coming-of-age novel. This is a spellbinding suspense novel with heart and soul, a story that will keep you riveted until the very last page.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Tamarack, 1913 The first day was. To say the least, bewildering. The second, like it. How great was the joy and comfort, when at the close of day, each weary little infant climbed into Mother's arms and told his trials and tribulations! Since they could not amuse themselves with playthings the little Freshies skipped periods and played hide and go seek in the halls. Then in the library shooting rubbers was such fun. But woe to Freshie when he approached the door. For her was met by the ever watching and suspecting Miss Fargo! Nevertheless. Such childishness must be overlooked. So we. The illustrious Sophomores. The dignified Juniors, and mighty Seniors. Raise the brimming gob lets of good will to the infants and wish that they may prosper. As we have done. And ever remain loyal and true to our dear North Central. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Description
"In this groundbreaking anthology, the author offers new hope for those who love trees and forests. These essays are by leading experts. This work draws on the knowledge of indigenous people and the traditional role that forests and trees have played in their lives. It shows that sustainable forestry and conservation is possible. The authors also cover the role of trees in global warming." - BellaOnline, Connie Krochmal There is an emerging revolution in wild forest relationships. Wild foresting has evolved from ecoforestry, going far beyond merely having a minimum impact on the world, to sustaining and promoting forest health, along with biological and cultural diversity. Wild foresting promotes the responsible use of forests, connects indigenous knowledge systems, and unites a great variety of local practices tailored to unique forests around the world. Prize-winning experts dedicated to reconciliation in human–wild forest relationships have contributed their stories to this comprehensive, in-depth anthology. The authors give accounts of how wild foresting is being practiced around the world, with such diverse activities as: Wild farming Wild crafting Adventure therapy Restoration Permaculture Ecosystem restoration Education Wild Foresting is presented in eight thematic sections that discuss topics as varied as tree meditation, wild humans, and ecophobia. Case studies from the Amazon, Australia, Norway, and Thailand illustrate how wild foresting principles are adapted to different cultures and how emerging practices are fusing ancient knowledge systems with contemporary ecological studies. Wild Foresting is a fascinating and informative walk in the woods for everyone concerned about biodiversity, ancient forests, indigenous cultures, and endangered species. Alan Drengson is professor emeritus of philosophy at the University of Victoria, an author, and one of the founders of the Ecoforestry Institute.
