To build back the strength in his wasted legs, he started hiking through the sage-covered foothills around his home in Yakima, Washington. The cure worked; and year by year he pushed his explorations further into the tangled, rugged mountains of the Pacific Northwest. Of Men and Mountains is a book of personal adventure and discovery. It is an account of the way Douglas and other men found a richer life in the mountains, and how they found something else besides. In such country, Douglas has noted, "men can find deep solitude, and under conditions of grandeur that are startling, he can come to know both himself and God." The men of the story are such legendary characters as Roy Schaeffer and Jack Nelson, and the sheepherders, Indians, fishermen, and foresters who have learned to survive in the wilderness and enjoy it.…

DJ has faint rubbing; in a mylar cover. Pages are clean and tight. 'Not all of them set out to change the world, but some of them managed to do just that. Not even legendary announcer Ernie Harwell knew the intrigue that led to his brutal and disastrous dismissal--the full story is presented here for the first time. How did the coolest-of-cool novelist Elmore "Dutch" Leonard find his voice and create those just-off-center bad guys and capture that street-smart dialogue? Haney takes readers inside the minds of these and more than a dozen other notable Michigan figures, people like Dr. Jack Kevorkian, the zealot who elevated the issue of assisted suicide. And Academy Award-winning Sue Marx, automotive genius Ed Cole, the three visionary men who built the Palace and the championship Pistons, and many more men and women who made a difference. Haney reveals the motivations and the passions of people--some prominent, some scarcely known--who made decisions and took actions that had impacts that reverberated far beyond the borders of the state.' ; Signed by Author.…
