Finishing The Western States 100 Mile Endurance Run
ISBN: 9781466406186 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 144 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) This book is written as a tribute for those who have participated as runners, pacers, crew members, and the many volunteers who make the run possible. It is also written for those who may be tempted to take on the challenge of Western States. Only these folks know and can appreciate what is required to finish Western States. Other folks usually respond with, "I get tired just driving 100 miles." There is no admiration or notoriety outside this esoteric circle of people.

Mid Sierra Musings
ISBN: 9781493616985 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 132 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) I began a blog called "Mid Sierra Musings." It is mostly about my experiences in the central Sierras. There currently seems to be a vicarious thirst and large viewership for things related to self-sufficiency, wilderness living. There are 'reality series' programs like "Alaska The Last Frontier" and "Mountain Men." I have the best of both worlds since I have all the conveniences of city living with quick access to the Sierra National Forest and both Sequoia/Kings Canyon (SeKi) and Yosemite an hour away. I can mow my lawn in the morning and be above 7,000' skiing an hour and a half later....

Kings Canyon: The Backpacker's Park
ISBN: 9781494706456 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 84 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) This book is this about Kings Canyon. 75 miles of the JMT is in Kings Canyon National Park. This lack of access to the inner beauty of Kings Canyon, a park like Yosemite, also formed by glaciers, has also preserved much of the pristine beauty. Kings Canyon simply has a different feel about it. Kings Canyon is set up for backpackers with several backcountry rangers stationed along the JMT to assist backpackers. Some of the highest peaks in the Sierras are in Kings Canyon including North Palisade at 14,249'.

Anglican Sanctification: The Work We Were Given To Do
ISBN: 9781466330269 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 148 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) As both a psychologist and an Anglican Priest, I ask myself questions: What constitutes the attributes of a Christian? How are Christians different than those who are not Christians? Are new Christians different from older Christians? Is there some kind of emotional patina evident to others as Christians age? From the perspective of science, does Christianity offer a method or treatment with observable outcomes? Does regular church attendance, Scripture reading and service to others make a difference? Do we become what we practice? Is there a change of personality sometimes referred to as...

Blue Collar Mysticism
ISBN: 9781470070427 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 138 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) This book is written as an encouragement and comfort to those individuals who have been blessed to hear the still small voice of God (1st Kings 19:11-13). This is the story of Mysticism, Mystics as seekers of God and me because it is my story too. To have a mystical experience does not make one a mystic any more than having a seizure makes one an epileptic. It is really a lifetime of experiences that add up to and distinguish a mystic from others. I also believe that mystics lead both a contemplative and productive life. They are not involved in quietism. As a Christian, I believe the path of...

A Pilgrim's Progress And The John Muir Trail
ISBN: 9781479285068 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 84 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) I have completed the John Muir Trail in sections over the last decade. During this time I have been changed by the events of life in general and specifically the JMT. The JMT has unrivaled beauty, requires considerable effort and is a type of spiritual pilgrimage whether one is particularly religious or not. This book is a photographic record of the 211 mile journey from Yosemite National Park in the North to the summit of Mount Whitney in the South. I have also included 10 essays related to specific reflections on experiences in the wilderness and the journey along the JMT as a kind of...

My Favorite Fresno County CA Mountain Passes
ISBN: 9781492304388 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 64 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) Often my civilian and clerical lives merge. As a cleric there is a kind of prophetic mindset. By this I don't mean future telling as much as stating reality in a way that uncovers what is obvious. I don't mean this in a critical sense either because it is easy to distort the prophetic role into that of a critic or simply a grumbler. The older we become, the easier it is to do this. It is obvious to me, that most of the world, including Fresno County California residents, is not aware of the beauty that lies hidden in the mountains and wilderness of Fresno County. Much of this beauty is found...
