Is bourbon the quintessential American liquor? Bourbon is not just alcohol - the amber-colored drink is deeply ingrained in American culture and tangled in American history. From the early days of raw corn liquor to the myriad distilleries that have proliferated around the country today, bourbon is a symbol of the United States. This course traces bourbon's entire history, from the 1700s, with Irish, Scottish, and French settlers setting up stills and making distilled spirits in the New World, through today's booming resurgence.

A revolutionary approach to the techniques of working with horses, by a renowned instructor. In Horses Never Lie, renowned horse trainer Mark Rashid challenges the conventional wisdom of "alpha leadership" and teaches the listener to become a "passive leader" - a counterpart to the kind of horse other members of a herd choose to associate with and to follow. Applying Rashid’s principles and techniques helps cultivate horse personalities that are responsive and dependable regardless of the rider.

Excited to start our new life!
This audio was amazing - just the confidence we needed to get started living off grid after working in Finance for over thirty years - we have had enough of it! This audio was really well narrated, thinks about everything you could possibly need to know about living off grid and the most important chapter for us was chapter 2 - getting all of your finances in check to make the move and lifestyle possible! Great audio for others like us, who want to actually live!

From setting up energy sources to growing my own food, it covered the basics without feeling overwhelming. I liked how it focused on practical solutions for someone just starting out. I’ve already made a few changes to my home, and I feel more confident about taking bigger steps soon!

It breaks down the complex process!!
As someone who has always dreamed of living a more self-sufficient, eco-friendly lifestyle, I believe this book is everything I hoped for. Whether you're just starting to explore the idea of off-grid living or you're ready to take the plunge, this guide provides the perfect roadmap to make your dream a reality.
The step-by-step approach is what makes this book so effective. It breaks down the complex process: From choosing the right location to setting up water, energy, and waste systems, the book covers it all. Even as a beginner without prior knowledge, I felt completely supported.
What truly sets this book apart is its emphasis on creating a sustainable and eco-friendly home while achieving financial freedom. Advice on reducing costs and becoming self-reliant is invaluable. It’s not just about building a home—it’s about building a lifestyle that’s aligned with my values. The tips on renewable energy, gardening, and managing resources were especially helpful.
Another highlight is the author’s real-world examples and case studies that brought the concepts to life. It’s clear that the author has lived this lifestyle and genuinely wants to help others succeed.
Since reading this book, I’ve started planning my off-grid journey confidently and excitedly. The thought of living a simpler, greener life feels more attainable than ever.
