Book Review: A Must-Have for Dick Proenneke fans...
Summary: 5 Stars
I'm sure many of you have seen the story of Dick Proenneke on your Public Television channel, who went to Alaska at age 51, built a log cabin on Twin Lakes (now part of Lake Clark National Park), and lived there alone for 30 years. He took many thousands of feet of film and countless pictures from his experiences there, from which two documentaries were made (Alone in the Wilderness and The Frozen North - both Bob Swerer productions).
"More Readings from One Man's Wilderness" covers Dick's unedited daily journal entries for the years 1974 to 1980. You will live his experiences day-by-day, and see the man in more depth that ever before. He became famous in the 70's after his first film and book were released, and was visited by governors, mayors, senators, and the likes of John Denver. He was a friend to all, and both enjoyed his fame and was a little frustrated by it. This book is fascinating reading, and contains pictures not previously seen. If you're feeling down, reading about Dick's adventures will lift your spirits in no time.
