Almost Life Changing

A book that will be almost impossible to put down if you have any facsination with living in the woods permenantly. Angier's narrative and slef-note's are seamless and puts you in the story. Leaving BOSTON MASS, appears to be the best thing these two Americans ever did. My Dad (I'm 24) almost sold this at a garage sale. I'm grateful that I picked it up.

A truly inspiring book

Long before one might think it necessary to escape to the woods, Bradford Angier and his wife Vera did just that, leaving the bustle of New York City for the simplicity of the Hudson Bay area. This book describes their adventures and personal growth as the couple builds their own cabin in the Far North, and inspires me to dream of doing the same some day. Vera's experiences with cooking new foods especially were interesting to me.
