 | Amazon Extreme by Colin Angus, Ian Mulgrew
To a trio of twenty-something adrenaline junkies, it sounded like an irresistible challenge: Tackle the Amazon River with nothing more than a rubber raft between them and fate. But when Colin Angus and his buddies embarked on their fantastic voyage in September 1999, just climbing to the river's source nearly killed them. Taking adventure travel to new heights, AMAZON EXTREME provides a you-are-there account of his expedition's terrors and triumphs. Beginning with the dehydration that nearly did the adventurers in as they hiked through the Andes Mountains to the river's source, Colin Angus and journalist Ian Mulgrew deliver one page-turning scene after another as the ersatz sailors tackle countless horrific hazards. But in spite of Shining Path gunmen and mosquito-laden drinking water and, of course, the terrifying rapids themselves, Angus's crew also found a reverence for the equally compelling beauty that makes this region so renowned. Graceful dolphins, lush forests, and intriguing people who've made their homes on the riverbank complete the backdrop as the five-month excursion unfolds. Culminating in an astonishing victory that garnered major media coverage, this is the story of three guys who truly went off the deep end, and one who came back to write a riveting recollection of it.

 | A Wild Neighborhood by Betsy Brown, John Henricksson
John Henricksson's neighbors stop by to chat or to have a bite to eat or just to sit and watch. But in his Wild Neighborhood the visitors are the black bear, gray jay, timber wolf, owl, white-tailed deer, raven, and the moose. A Wild Neighborhood is a collection of elegantly written essays about these creatures. From kitchen-table gossip about the black bear's recent attempts to raid the bird feeder, to the retelling of Native American myths about the mischievous raven, Henricksson shows a love and understanding of the residents with whom he shares the narrow wedge of the Superior National Forest in northeastern Minnesota.
