Do you want to learn German quickly, easily, and on your schedule? Hi friends, my name is Glenda, and teaching foreign languages is my passion! There are a lot of different ways to learn a language--studying books, taking a class, or even watching foreign movies. But I'm an auditory learner. I have to hear and repeat the language to make it stick. In fact, when I was a teenager taking German classes, I would often make my own (cassette) recordings and study for my tests by listening to them.

The “mountain men” were the hunters and trappers who fiercely strode the Rocky Mountains in the early to mid-1800s. They braved the elements in search of the skins of beavers and other wild animals, to sell or barter for goods. The lifestyle of the mountain men could be harsh, existing as they did among animals, and spending most of their days and nights living and camping out in the great unexplored wilds of the Rockies.

Story
When Edmund Hillary first conquered Mt. Everest, Sherpa Tenzing Norgay was at his side. Indeed, for as long as Westerners have been climbing the Himalaya, Sherpas have been the unsung heroes in the background. In August 2008, when eleven climbers lost their lives on K2, the world’s most dangerous peak, two Sherpas survived. They had emerged from poverty and political turmoil to become two of the most skillful mountaineers on earth. Based on unprecedented access and interviews, Buried in the Sky reveals their astonishing story for the first time.

For 30 years, drummer, author, and songwriter Neil Peart had wanted to write a book about "the biggest journey of all in my restless existence: the life of a touring musician." Finally, the right time, and the right tour. In the summer of 2004, after three decades, 20 gold albums, and thousands of performances, the band Rush embarked on a 30th Anniversary World Tour. The "R30" tour traveled to nine countries, where the band performed 57 shows for more than half a million fans. Uniquely, Peart chose to do his between-show traveling by motorcycle, riding 21,000 miles of back roads.

Thoreau gives an account of three canoe and hiking journeys - by himself and with others - through the mostly uninhabited forests of Maine in the 1850s. Identifying birds, trees and plants by their botanical as well as their common names, he also records the Indian names of lakes, rivers and plants. He investigates the connections between waterways and trails, and provides detail on camping, fishing and hunting in the woods, using whatever is at hand. Extolling the beauty of the wilds that he encounters, Thorough’s narrative is also imbued with elements of his philosophy.

Filled with helpful conversations
The chapters were organized very well because they focused on the main categories of information you need when you are traveling. The chapters begin with a conversation and then you hear each sentence which is then broken down into phrases and sometimes words. The production was great--as a newbie I would have loved the words or phrases announced a couple of more times slowly. That was my favorite part--when I could hear the phrase or word slowly enough to sound it out and then repeat it aloud. Other than that, it was such a helpful resource and helped me get a feel for a bit of grammar and for how beautiful the language is.
