The Longest Winter
Julie Harris
(9 Reviews)
Genre: Action & Adventure | Literary Fiction
FREE for a limited time
In 1911, a young John Shaw from South Carolina had his first taste of flying. In 1926, two years after the plane crash death of his best friend, he attempted a solo flight record in a refitted 1923 Curtiss Jenny. Then, with half the journey completed, his plane was caught in a storm, went down, and for seventeen years he was listed as missing, presumed dead.
The Longest Winter is a work of fiction, the tale of one man’s life. His story is one of despair and courage, tragedy and triumph–stranded on an uncharted rocky island, his body broken by the crash, John is adopted into a tribe of Aleuts, until the evacuation of the Aleutian Islands in May 1943.
This is John’s story.
‘A raw and unsentimental collage, the novel finally emerges as a moving testament to survival and adaptation.’

The Boy Who Was Afraid of the World
Jamie Bowlby-Whiting
(10 Reviews)
Genre: Travel
FREE for a limited time
As a child who suffered from crippling and irrational fears, Jamie was not the typical candidate to start hitchhiking alone through Europe. Yet at the age of 25, tired of a mundane life involving routines and comfort, he gave up everything and put his trust in the goodness of strangers. Told in the first person, this true story encapsulates the dizzying highs and desperate lows of what happens when a fearful individual chooses to let go of everything and travel alone through the world, sleeping under the stars and in the homes of strangers. It is a story about places, about people, about the constant internal battle that occurs during six months on the road.
This is not an epic adventure or a travel diary. This is not a story about defeating fear and being courageous. This is an internal roller coaster spread across a whole continent. This is real life, and sometimes real life is big and scary.

Lorrie McDonald was only twelve years old and she had already killed a drunken cowboy. Gold had been discovered in Colorado and she was on her way to get her share.

She drove away with the cowboy’s horse in tow, his Winchester rifle and the jar of scorpions on the seat beside her. It was 1865 and the War Between The States was over, but in her mind, a new war was just beginning. She made a promise to herself that no matter what happened, no man was ever going to take advantage of her again.
