The Waters Between Us Lib/E: A Boy, a Father, Outdoor Misadventures, and the Healing Power of Nature

By: Tougias, Michael J.

A charming and delightful reminiscence of growing up loving the woods, waters, fields, and fauna of Massachusetts by Michael Tougias, New York Times bestselling author of The Finest Hours, Overboard , and Fatal Forecast.

Untamed. Unsupervised. Uncontrolled.

Boyhood in the 1960s and '70s was a time for exploration and mischief. Author Michael Tougias found more than his share of misadventures in the woods and on the water: some life-threatening but others innocently hilarious.

Over time--and after reading a multitude of adventure books--these experiences took shape in his quest to be a mountain man, owning a cabin in the forest and living off the land. Part of that dream would come true but only after a family tragedy that shook his world and forced changes in his life.

This is also a story of a complex and strained relationship between father and son, the efforts at understanding, and ultimately respect and devotion.

In The Waters Between Us Tougias channels Bryson's A Walk in the Woods to mix laugh out loud humor with insight into the natural world through the eyes of a curious boy.
