Well-told stories from the wilderness

This is Chris Czajkowski's third book, and is written a little differently than her first two. Those two were written in chronological order, telling of events taking place over a set amount of time. This one is a collection of stories that take place over a longer period of time and are in not necessarily in any particular order. In case you've never read any of her Czajkowski's books before, she lives in the British Columbia wilderness, a 2-4 day walk from a road or civilization. She makes her living hosting visitors who come to experience the beautiful Coast Mountains. Some of the stories in this book are about that, but she also tells of repeated bear break-ins, some of the hair-raising adventures experienced out on the trail, her dogs (who serve as both companions and pack animals), tracking down an elusive wildflower, attempting to raise an orphaned baby squirrel, and of course the wild weather that sometimes whips through the area. As always, Chris tells her stories expertly. She is a good writer, and the fact that this book is true makes it all the more interesting. Whether or not the wilderness life appeals to you, these stories entertaining to read.
