Story
The “mountain men” were the hunters and trappers who fiercely strode the Rocky Mountains in the early to mid-1800s. They braved the elements in search of the skins of beavers and other wild animals, to sell or barter for goods. The lifestyle of the mountain men could be harsh, existing as they did among animals, and spending most of their days and nights living and camping out in the great unexplored wilds of the Rockies.

In Wildlife Wars, Terry Grosz serves up fascinating stories - alternately hair-raising, hilarious, and heart-wrenching - from his 30-year struggle to protect wildlife in America. A natural storyteller, Grosz writes about the remarkable characters he met - on both sides of the law - as he matched wits with elk poachers, salmon snaggers, commercial-market duck hunters, and a host of other law-breakers. Best of all, though, these stories are so remarkably entertaining you won't want to put them down.

Story
Raised as a fourth-generation farmer, when Will Harris inherited White Oak Pastures he was a full-time commodity cowboy who played hard and fast with every tool the system offered–chemicals, antibiotics, steroids, and more. His ancestors had built a highly profitable, conventionally run machine, but over time he found himself disgusted with the excess, cruelty, and smalltown devastation this system entailed. So he bet the farm on forging a different way of doing things. One that works with nature not against it, and bridges the quickly widening delta between consumers and their food.

Story
In 1908, near Folsom, New Mexico, a cowboy discovered the remains of a herd of extinct giant bison. By examining flint points embedded in the bones, archeologists later determined that a band of humans had killed and butchered the animals 12,450 years ago. This discovery vastly expanded America's known human history but also revealed the long-standing danger Homo sapiens presented to the continent's evolutionary richness. Distinguished scholar Dan Flores's ambitious history chronicles the epoch in which humans and animals have coexisted in the "wild new world" of North America.

Story
Gripping and often poetic, Alone Against the North is a classic adventure story of single-minded obsession, physical hardship, and the restless sense of wonder that every explorer has in common. What Shoalts discovered as he paddled downriver was a series of unmapped waterfalls that could easily have killed him. Just as astonishing was the media reaction when he got back to civilization. He was feted by the Royal Canadian Geographical Society and congratulated by the Governor General. People were enthralled by Shoalts’s proof that the world is bigger than we think.

Publisher's Summary
INSTANT #1 INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER
“Astoundingly original, relentlessly paced, and purely authentic.” —Jack Carr, #1 New York Times bestselling author
An elite secret society of killers has controlled the world’s treasures for hundreds of years…until one member tears himself free to salvage his soul and protect his daughter’s life in this electrifying and thrilling debut.
The single greatest work of art in the world is not in the Louvre or The Met, or in any private collection. In fact, its whereabouts are unknown.
Once in a long while, a child is born possessing the rarest of gifts, the innate ability to feel impossible beauty, to recognize priceless works of art. When such a child is discovered, a 250-year-old secret organization called Our World trains them to acquire the greatest works of art through theft, bribery, forgery, and even murder. Once found, the masterpiece will disappear again without anyone ever knowing it surfaced and sold for billions of dollars of profit at a secret auction attended by only the wealthiest of the art world’s patrons.
One of Our World’s rare geniuses is Zhivago. He is also a psychopathic killer. On his trail is Hunter, a man who will stop at nothing to destroy the organization and save his daughter from suffering the same fate her mother did at its hands.
What the critics say
"If you think you know Jim Shockey from his award-winning shows on television, think again. CALL ME HUNTER proves Jim is more than one of the world’s most respected hunters and outdoorsman. Much more. He is a man of letters. CALL ME HUNTER is astoundingly original, relentlessly paced, and purely authentic in a way that only Jim could deliver. Shockey's debut thriller exceeds all expectations. It will leave you breathless and wondering if the story that just consumed you was written on a foundation of more than mere whispers of the truth." (Jack Carr, #1 New York Times bestselling author of ONLY THE DEAD)
“There were so many moments in Jim Shockey’s CALL ME HUNTER where I said “Is this true? Is this real?” that the experience reminded me of reading The DaVinci Code for the first time. Written with deep insight into the mysterious world of art and art collectors, Shockey’s debut is riveting and wholly original. I loved it.” (Mark Sullivan, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Last Green Valley and Beneath a Scarlet Sky)
"My hat’s off to Jim Shockey. One of the world’s greatest hunters spins a tale of pursuit of a different stripe. CALL ME HUNTER is a fascinating descent into the world of priceless art and artifacts and the brilliant savant child born to identify them. Throw in a passel of psychopathic killers and a shadowy organization bent on obtaining these objects at any cost and you have the making of a first-rate thriller." (Gregg Hurwitz, New York Times bestselling author of the Orphan X series)

Plot line and Storytelling Supreme.
Great story telling, the juxtaposition makes such a great book. Flashing back to pieces of the puzzle, while leaving a trail of bread crumbs the whole way. Combined with the real-life experience of Shockeys life, makes this book so great. Not the story I expected, but one I enjoy thoroughly.

A strong start but unfortunately became a meandering storyline that became difficult to listen to the end.
The beginning of the book seemed very intriguing and I fully expected to enjoy this book. The second third of the book became less interesting and cohesive. The final third and conclusion were filled with superfluous narrative.
Sorry, this one is not for me.
