Book Description
Huntin’ with Gus by Larry A. Clifford Sr. Told as a collection of childhood stories, Huntin’ with Gus reflects on the lessons learned through one boy’s journey to manhood. Hunting, fishing, and nature experiences result in morals and life lessons learned, and all of these lead the young man closer to appreciating his relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ. Additionally, he begins to see the true meaning of life— to find and establish a working relationship with the Lord— and the things that are most important on this Earth. The novel recounts the dreams, beliefs, and goals of a small-town boy as he finds himself in situations that test his understanding of the world around him. Although some of them are quite humorous, like the tale of an almost-hunting accident, each holds a truth that conveys an understanding and maturation that comes with age. With southern wit and recipes sprinkled in for good measure, Huntin’ with Gus warms the heart and the soul.

Good Will Hunting
Author: Ben Affleck
Publisher: Miramax Books
ISBN: 9780786883448
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 196
Book Description
As director Gus Van Sant observes in the introduction to Matt Damon's and Ben Affleck's screenplay Good Will Hunting, the two young actors somewhat resemble the characters they play in the film: they're best friends, and Affleck (who plays Chuckie) habitually chauffeurs Damon (Will), who doesn't drive. Van Sant says we can see how badly Damon drives by watching the film's last scene, in which he is actually driving the car with the camera mounted on it. But Damon and company write better than he drives; this script contains some of the boldest, best monologues since Pulp Fiction.Van Sant and cast member Robin Williams helped the young actors tame the tigers in their cranial tanks, trimming the script into a precision instrument. Though the stills from the film are not perfectly matched to their places in the script, this story remains as much a joy to read as it is towatch on the big screen.

Fortunate Son
Author: Rick Bass
Publisher: University of New Mexico Press
ISBN: 082636246X
Category : Literary Collections
Languages : en
Pages : 220
Book Description
Rick Bass’s Fortunate Son is a literary tour of the Lone Star State by a native Texan of exceptional talent. The essays encompass a Texas that is both lost and found, past and present. The stories reach from Galveston Bay to the Hill Country outside Austin, and from Houston in the 1960s to today. They are bound together by a deep love and a keen eye for the land and its people and by an appreciation for what is given, a ruefulness for what is lost, and a commitment to save what can be saved. “This is a journalist’s Texas scrapbook, then: a firefighting story, a musical pilgrimage, a ramble in Texas’s tiniest public wilderness (one of only five in the entire state). Fishing with my father and uncle on a lake that is partly in Texas and partly in Louisiana; flying around the borders of Texas—usually defined by water, a resource that will vanish in much of the state within our lifetime; hanging out at my parents’ cattle farm down near Goliad; reading the work of Texans before me.”—from the Introduction
