Infos

Untamed. Unsupervised. Uncontrolled.Boyhood in the 1960s and ';70s was a time for exploration and mischief. Author Michael Tougias found more than his share of misadventures in the woods and on the water: some life-threatening but others innocently hilarious.Over time and after reading a multitude of adventure books -- these experiences took shape in his quest to be a mountain man, owning a cabin in the forest and living off the land. Part of that dream would come true, but only after a family tragedy that shook his world and forced changes in his life.This is also a story of a complex and strained relationship between father and son, the efforts at understanding, and ultimately respect and devotion.In The Waters Between Us Tougias channels Bryson's ';A Walk in the Woods' to mix laugh out loud humor with insight into the natural world through the eyes of a curious boy.Tougias is a New York Times Bestselling author and co-author of 31 books, including There's A Porcupine In My Outhouse (Winner of the Independent Publishers ';Best Nature Book of the Year') and The Finest Hours (inspiration for a 2016 Disney movie). He has received many writing awards.
