About this listen

The target was simple. Leave the city. Move up north. Buy land for cash. Build without debt. And raise a family in the wild -- hunting, fishing and raising crops and animals without the tethers of societal norms. Jeff, Rose and their five girls did exactly that. Almost. From the frigid grasp of a winter night's death trap, past the untamed majesty of unpredictable mountain plateaus, and into the squalor of an infested hovel, the path proved to be winding, punishing, and more magical than they imagined. Join their journey into the Canadian forest where they carve out a wildly abundant life of self-sufficiency and freedom. A cross between Dick Proenneke's 'One Man's Wilderness' and Thoreau's 'Walden' with a side of 'Beverly Hillbillies'. If you love outdoor adventure, want to take back control of your life, and don't mind a good laugh, this book is for you!

Great listen as it gives a bit of insight of what it takes to life the life, something I always wanted but never moved in that direction.

Great Listen

So let me just lay it out for you. You’re going to buy the physical book (or the digital book) and you’re going to start reading it and enjoying it BUT the Jeff voice in your head is going to be just slightly off. And when he speaks about meeting Rose…you’re going to want to hear it from his mouth. So you’re going to buy the audiobook too. And yes Jeff…if you somehow filmed and released a X hour long video of you reading the book and post it on YouTube (or you discussing each chapter like a book club!)…your fans will watch that too. Thank you for sharing your journey with us and keep up the good work, Eh.
