Book Description
In the 1980s, young Tony De Bonis and his dad set out into the deep woods of British Columbia with one goal in mind: hunting. As the years went on, Tony went from a beginner hunter to an expert, and eventually taught his own sons just as his father once taught him. You Can't Get 'Em From Home is a memoir and a love letter to hunting. It features stories about Tony and his dad, about his hunting buddies, and his sons, the next generation of hunters in his family. In every corner of the province, Tony hunted every kind of game there is. Some of his stories are heartwarming, some funny—and some deal with barely-avoided tragedy. When Tony was just ten years old, he started writing down his hunting experiences. As those journals grew longer, he discovered a book waiting in their pages. Readers will delight in learning about the ins and outs of hunting, how to survive in the wild, and just what it takes to be a successful hunter over the course of many long years.

Three unsuspecting women. Two escaped convicts. One shocking night of escalating terror. From acclaimed crime writer and law enforcement veteran Sean Lynch . . .

Pages : 336
Book Description
First published in 1972, The Foxfire Book was a surprise bestseller that brought Appalachia's philosophy of simple living to hundreds of thousands of readers.

Much more than "how-to" books, the Foxfire series is a publishing phenomenon and a way of life, teaching creative self-sufficiency, the art of natural remedies, home crafts, and other country folkways, fascinating to everyone interested in rediscovering the virtues of simple life.
