Hostile Territory


Book Description

In Paul Greci’s Hostile Territory, a catastrophic earthquake strands four teens in the Alaskan wilderness—and leaves them without a civilization to return to. Josh and three other campers at Simon Lake are high up on a mountain when an earthquake hits. The rest of the camp is wiped out in a moment—leaving Josh, Derrick, Brooke, and Shannon alone, hundreds of miles from the nearest town, with meager supplies, surrounded by dangerous Alaskan wildlife. After a few days, it’s clear no rescue is coming, and distant military activity in the skies suggests this natural disaster has triggered a political one. Josh and his fellow campers face a struggle for survival in their hike back home—to an America they might not recognize. An Imprint Book “In Greci’s intense survival tale with a thriller component, four teens endure a harrowing trek across the Alaskan wilderness . . . It’s clear that Greci (The Wild Lands) knows his landscape—Alaska’s beauty and natural hazards become their own vivid character in his handling.” —Publishers Weekly “Readers will feel like they are in Alaska alongside the characters... Recommended for teenagers who like postapocalyptic adventure or are fans of Gary Paulsen’s Hatchet.” —School Library Journal

Exactly Where You Need to Be


Book Description

Turtles All the Way Down meets Love and Luck in this “lively” (Publishers Weekly), romantic road trip story about a teen girl’s last chance to have an epic summer with her best friend before everything changes. Florie’s OCD and her mother’s worrying have kept her from a lot of things, like having an after-school job and getting her driver’s license. And now that she’s graduated high school, while her best friend Kacey is headed off to Portland in the fall, Florie’s taking a parent-sanctioned gap year off before starting college. When the decision was made, Florie was on board, but now she can’t ignore the growing itch to become the person she wants to be and venture outside the quaint, boring Washington town she grew up in. Winning tickets to see her favorite true crime podcast’s live show in California gives her the opportunity to do just that, if only for a few days. So—unbeknownst to their parents—Kacey and Florie set off on a road trip to San Francisco. The only downside in Florie’s opinion? Sam, Kacey’s older brother and Florie’s forever crush, is their ride. The Samson Hodge, who Florie hasn’t seen since winter break, and who she’d prefer to never see again, if possible. But Florie is willing to put up with Sam if it means one last adventure with her best friend. Making it to San Francisco and back to Washington without their parents catching on isn’t a given, but one thing is for sure: this trip will change everything.




The Historic Fort Worth Stockyards


Book Description

With breathtaking color photography and absorbing historical detail, Carolyn Brown and J'Nell Pate tell the story of the Fort Worth Stockyards, the place that earned the city the nickname "Cowtown." From the rise of the stockyards as a vital railhead for the ranching industry through the postwar decline and rebirth as a National Historic District, first-time visitors and long-time acquaintances will find this chronicle engaging and enjoyable. Brown and Pate accompany readers through the early days of settlement, the cattle drives that saw thousands of head of livestock going up the trail through what was then little more than a frontier outpost, and the rising tide of industry that accompanied the arrival of the railroads. Continuing after World War II when the changes in the livestock industry led to decline of their importance, the stockyards, once a bustling, vital part of the regional culture and economy, fell into slow decay. In 1976, citizens banded together to create a National Historic District. Today, the Fort Worth Stockyards attract thousands of visitors from all over the world with restaurants, entertainment venues, and the world's only twice-daily longhorn cattle drive along East Exchange Avenue. Brown's lens captures the vibrancy of today's stockyards while Pate's research depicts the drama of the area's rise, fall, and rebirth. The Historic Fort Worth Stockyards provides a visual and factual tour of an unforgettable place where heritage is celebrated and preserved.




Bob's Essential RV Resort Directory


Book Description

If you're looking to plan the grand trip of a lifetime, this book is for you! I have been traveling in my RV across North America full time since 2012. I was laid off from my corporate job as an accountant, and I needed a solution for living cheaply. I decided that it was more economical - and fun - to live fulltime on the road. Ever since, I have been keeping notes and records about the sort of RV parks, resorts, and campgrounds, where I have personally camped. I also asked around in my circle of other RV enthusiasts to compile the listings in this book. I decided to compound these notes into this comprehensive directory. Think of this book as a personally recommended and curated listing of RV parks, resorts, and campgrounds. I am mainly focused on how your experience would be at these locations while traveling in an RV specifically. I have not included many notes on primitive or tent camping, as all of these locations offer amenities such as electric and water hookups. Many locations in this directory do not offer tent camping sites. I have not sold any spots in this book to any of these businesses. None of them have paid to be a part of this listing. I chose the businesses to be included in this book as those places where either I personally stayed and had a great time or one of my friends in the RV community personally recommended it to me. You will notice that nearly every listing allows pets at their facility, as I know that our furry companions are very special to us, I wanted to make those listing a highlight for your vacation planning. There are also no national or state parks listed here. This is as complete a listing of private RV parks, resorts, and campgrounds as can be handpicked directly from those who are in the RV community. This is a straightforward directory listing of places to stay with your RV in the lower 48 continental United States. I have compiled the listings into their own tables, outlining the necessary qualities of each campground, including their physical address and phone numbers. The information is as current and accurate as I could possibly ensure it to be. Each table listing outlines: Street address Phone number Website (It will be clickable if you're reading the eBook version.) Operating days Price Discounts Offered Maximum width and length of the sites The total number of spaces offered Road conditions (paved, gravel, dirt) Any restrictions (for example, if they have any conditions concerning pets) A list of a few of the amenities the resort offers I have listed the campgrounds by state, and most of the states I have split into regions so you can better decide where you might stay by where you want to be in that state. AS A BONUS If you purchase the paperback version of this book, you can download the eBook version for FREE. The best thing about the eBook version is that the links to the websites of the resorts and campgrounds (if they have one listed) is hyperlinked and clickable. This could save you time when you're trying to research your vacation.
