Sterling, 2004
The Greatest American of All?
+ The Adventures of Tom Sawyer + Danielle's "Pick..."
It being the Fourth of July, or Small Explosives Day as I call it (training kids early to think bombs are fun can pay off with trillions of tax dollars, no questions asked), I am reminded of my favorite American, Mr. Sam Clemens.
I remember it was a hot July day, I was five or six and happily ...

Reprint Services Corp, 1999

Anchor, 2007
Evading the threat of human intimacy in immoderation
+ Enchanting + Into the Wild

Krakauer was first hired by ...
