Book Reviews of Wild Men, Wild Alaska II: The Survival of the Fittest
Book Review: Worthy Sequel for Armchair Adventure Fans of Wild Men, Wild Alaska
Summary: 5 Stars
"For what happens to the sons of men also happens to animals; one thing befalls them: as one dies, so dies the other. Surely, they all have one breath; man has no advantage over animals, for all is vanity." -- Ecclesiastes 3:19
If you haven't yet read Wild Men, Wild Alaska, be sure to do so before this book. You'll have a better sense of Rocky and the Alaskan context if you do.
What is easy to do in a city can be all but impossible to do in an Alaskan blizzard. Little mistakes and unexpected consequences can create enormous problems and costs. It takes a different outlook on life to thrive in that environment, and Rocky surely has it!
The animal and hunting stories are just amazing, but the human drama is often much more impressive. Rocky knows how to have fun and he's added some of his best humorous stories to this book. You'll feel like you are bundled up around a roaring fire on a cold night as he tells you one wonderful story after another . . . all revealing God's glory in a way that it's easy to forget in the midst of a crowd of people.
The book reveals a lot about Rocky's character and the qualities that have allowed him to thrive where others may have trouble surviving. I was especially moved by the story of mentoring the young pilot who wanted to earn his bush license.
If you are interested in Franklin Graham, you'll also enjoy seeing other sides of him that aren't often revealed during one of his altar calls in a large church or stadium.
