I learned a lot about reading maps and compass especially topographical maps. This book is very informative about surviving in an emergency or if in enemy territory.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 365
The Trail is a moving story of how nature helps us find what’s missing in our lives. The tale begins with Gil, who in the wake of his father’s death and recently fired from his job, agrees to accompany his father’s old hiking partner Syd on a month-long trek on the John Muir Trail. There’s just one problem: Gil hates camping and is woefully unprepared for the rigors of the journey. Moreover, he soon learns Syd may not survive the hike.

I found this book to be an excellent story about hiking the trail. Even though it’s fictional, there is a lot of good information that someone needs to know before striking out on an extremely long hike.

The truth is still out there. The iconic hit that had millions searching for UFOs back in the 90s is now an exhilarating audio event, only from Audible. David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson reunite as FBI Special Agents Fox Mulder and Dana Scully, joining an ensemble of original cast members in an out-of-this-world production.

I believe ( no pun intended) the stories in the Cold Case Files where to help fill in some gaps that were never covered or explained during the series.
I assume by the way the book ends they could possibly start the series backup.

Andrew Carnegie was an immigrant, a poor boy who worked in a cotton mill, a man who amassed a great fortune as a steel baron and then became one of the most generous and influential philanthropists the world has ever known. His famous dictum, that he who dies rich dies disgraced, has inspired philanthropists and philanthropic enterprises for generations. During his own lifetime, he put his ideas into action by creating a family of organizations that continue to work toward improving the human condition.

Andrew Carnegie was a brilliant gentleman. I was surprised to learn in this book that he also gave pipe organs to churches. Started out as a messenger boy for the telegraph. Then work his way up through Pennsylvania Railroad. His autobiography is well worth the read it will give you more insight into the man.

The chemistry between Royce and Adrienne the two main characters in this story is amazing. It's the kind of friendship I think we all seek, to be accepted as we are. To have that friend that can help you when you go astray, that friend that can be there with you when your heart is broke and that friend that is with you to celebrate the best times of your life.

What made the experience of listening to Hard Country the most enjoyable?
This was a very good story of the hardships of ranching in west Texas and New Mexico during the late 1800s.
Any additional comments?
Looking forward to seeing this book made into a Movie...
