Anyone seeking a copy of this book can have mine. While I enjoyed the author's interesting perspectives on nature and lifestyle, the pace of this book was that of a bear in hibernation. The author is just too zany for his own good. Although he laughs at his mistakes, if he wasn't so clueless he wouldn't make them in the first place. It was when I got to the interminable section where the author battles a lightning storm from atop tree (a highly recommended stunt!) that I realized the book was better served helping to balance my washing machine. And we wonder why this thing is out of print?
