Like Mike, I don't read book much since the kids gave me this computer. I lost one eye a long time back and reading is not as easy as it was before that. My favorite book of ll time is "Spirit of the Border" by Zane Gray. I would like to read it again soon. Zane Gray is one of our home town boys. Jamestown ND.
This was his forward to that book and explains why it made such an impression on me. Also helped me decide to get into a former job
"Dedicated to
My Brother
With many fond recollections of days spent in the solitude of the
forests where only can be satisfied that wild fever of freedom of
which this book tells; where to hear the whir of a wild duck in his
rapid flight is joy; where the quiet of an autumn afternoon swells
the heart, and where one may watch the fragrant wood-smoke curl from
the campfire, and see the stars peep over dark, wooded hills as
twilight deepens, and know a happiness that dwells in the wilderness
alone.
