Book Description
In 1975, Darlene M. Reierson, a self-proclaimed “city girl,” and her husband, Brien, embarked on what so many people dream of doing but rarely attempt: a completely off-the-grid lifestyle, eking a living in the unforgiving wilderness of northern British Columbia, Canada. They spent the next several decades moving back and forth between a series of cabins they built with their own hands while logging, prospecting, trapping, hunting, fishing, gathering, and growing their own food. Throughout their years in the wilderness, Darlene was a relentless journaler, recording the highs and lows of modern homesteading in the mountains as she and Brien raised their two daughters. This book contains the second volume of Darlene’s journals, picking up at the point where their daughters have left home, and she and Brien are making a go of it themselves. Living on the edge as they did, however, tragedy was forever lurking right around the corner, and it struck hard during this phase of their lives. Despite their struggles against nature and the darkness of loss and grief, one thing that shines through is the Reiersons’ faith in their God. This alone is that gives Darlene the strength to continue moving forward in the face of tragedy. Also included in this book are several family trees and other genealogical information plus dozens of photos highlighting the Reiersons adventures and depicting their ancestors.

Book Description
New York's North Country can be hard to define: the region has solid boundaries on three sides but not on the south, where it mingles with the Adirondack Mountains. The spare and isolated landscape experiences long and harsh winters tempered with bucolic scenery. Small-town life and farming--both traditional and innovative--have found a haven and even thrive. The region plays host to determined, community-oriented people who have traded the financial lure of big cities for the satisfaction of barn raisings, outdoor hockey, quiet hikes and old-fashioned diners. In this collection, residents of the region probe their own lives and experiences with the land in a corner of America that is both demanding and rewarding. Discover their exciting, uplifting and poignant tales.

Book Description
“The idea is inspired and the treatment piercingly beautiful . . . Two formidable artists have shown respect for the integrity of each other’s work here and the result is magnificent.” —Independent “Bob Dylan’s back catalogue is used to glorious effect in Conor McPherson’s astonishing cross-section of hope and stoic suffering . . . It is the constant dialogue between the drama and the songs that makes this show exceptional.” —Guardian “Beguiling and soulful and quietly, exquisitely, heartbreaking. A very special piece of theatre.” —Evening Standard “A populous, otherworldly play that combines the hard grit of the Great Depression with something numinous and mysterious.” —Telegraph Duluth, Minnesota. 1934. A community living on a knife-edge. Lost and lonely people huddle together in the local guesthouse. The owner, Nick, owes more money than he can ever repay, his wife Elizabeth is losing her mind, and their daughter Marianne is carrying a child no one will account for. So when a preacher selling bibles and a boxer looking for a comeback turn up in the middle of the night, things spiral beyond the point of no return . . . In Girl from the North Country, Conor McPherson beautifully weaves the iconic songbook of Bob Dylan into a show full of hope, heartbreak and soul. It premiered at the Old Vic, London, in July 2017, in a production directed by the author. Conor McPherson is an award-winning Irish playwright. His best-known works include The Weir (Royal Court; winner of the 1999 Olivier Award for Best New Play), Dublin Carol (Atlantic Theater Company) and The Seafarer (National Theatre). Bob Dylan, born in Duluth, Minnesota, in 1941, is one of the most important songwriters of our time. Dylan was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 2016. He released his thirty-ninth studio album, Triplicate, in April 2017, and continues to tour worldwide.

Book Description
Home is like a leaf on a tree: other people, other homes, are the other leaves. They live beneath the same sky, share the same memories, survive the same storms. After twenty-five years on a New Brunswick farm, Beth Powning came to understand the land she calls home. Now, readers may once again experience the spirit of home in nature in this new edition of her seminal book. Time has made the subtle messages beyond her door become clearer, if not less mysterious: the glorious rawness of winter storms, the effortless dominance of oak trees, the distinctive poetry of night, the universes found within a humble garden.
