    Anything Worth Doing tells the unforgettable true story of larger-than-life whitewater raft guides Clancy Reece and Jon Barker, two men who share a love of wild rivers and an unbending will to live life on their terms, no matter the cost. Clancy's motto, "Anything worth doing is worth overdoing," leads them into a decade of beautiful - and beautifully strange - river adventures. Then, on June 8, 1996, in pursuit of a 24-hour speed record they intend to share only with a handful of friends, the men launch Clancy's handmade dory, his proudest possession, onto Idaho's renowned Salmon River at peak flood of an extreme high-water year. This time the odds catch up with them. With clarity reminiscent of Krakauer's Into the Wild, whitewater veteran Jo Deurbrouck carries us down the West's great rivers and into the hearts, minds, and homes of that rare breed for whom security is optional but freedom and passion are not. Anything Worth Doing - taut and efficient, yet rich with insight - is destined to become an adventure classic. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Jo Deurbrouck.

    The Last River: The Tragic Race for Shangri-La is a breathtaking account of the ill-fated October 1998 expedition of an American whitewater kayaking team who traveled deep into the Tsangpo Gorge in Tibet to run the Yarlung Tsangpo, known in paddling circles as the "Everest of rivers". For Wick Walker and Tom McEwan, extreme whitewater pioneers, best friends, and trip leaders, the Tsangpo adventure was the culmination of a 25-year quest for glory. Yet the team's magnificent dreams crumbled when their ace paddler was swept over a thunderous eight-foot waterfall, never to be seen again. Here is a fascinating exploration of both the seething big water and perilous terrain of the legendary Shangri-la, and the men who dared challenge the furious rapids that raced through this 140-mile-long canyon. The Last River invites us to view the Himalayas from a totally new perspective - on a historic river so remote that only the most hardy and romantic souls attempt to unlock its mysteries.

    A significant event occurred in Jim's life when his son was born. His son, Michael, was born weighing 3 pounds, 14 ounces. He also had several health issues that were eventually diagnosed as a growth disorder. The growth disorder had many characteristics. Most significantly, the disorder made Michael, throughout his life, smaller and slighter than most children or adults. These characteristics led to Michael looking "different." Throughout Michael's life, there were many experiences where he was judged, teased, and bullied because he was small. Children and adults said cruel and inappropriate things to Michael, and stares and rejections were a constant part of his life. As this situation had the potential of being very defeating to both Michael and Jim, both used the experiences they had as a way to shape who they would become and what would happen in their lives. Jim focused on developing a story to help stop bullying and harassment. He felt the need to educate students, parents, and teachers about the effects of bullying on children. "Big Ollie" is a resource for teachers and anyone who works with children. No child should be afraid to go to school. Jim Jelinske received his undergraduate degree from the University of Whitewater in Whitewater, Wisconsin, and received his master's degree at Cardinal Stritch College in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. He has spent twenty-five years working in various capacities, primarily with children and their families. Jim's passion has always been to help children and their families lead healthy and fulfilling lives. He has always championed those who have been treated with anything less than respect, especially children. For the last seven years, Jim has been traveling the country sharing his vision to stop bullying, harassment, violence, and disrespect to all people. ungekürzt. Language: English.
