Missing in the Boundary Waters

By: Larry Ahlman

Narrated by: Jerry Sciarrio

The early 1930s were desperate times in America. As the country struggled through the Great Depression, many of its finest young men, unable to find work, turned to begging or stealing to get by. But others began to roam the country, searching for their dreams. Many stories are told about the plight of these young men, but none as touching as the story of Charles "Mittens" Perkins, who traveled to the Boundary Waters Wilderness of Northern Minnesota in 1931, searching for his dream.©2005 Larry Ahlman (P)2005 Books in Motion

Critic reviews

"Danger, humor, a love of the outdoors, and the demands of survival are blended together...a highly recommended read." ( Midwest Book Review)

One of the best outdoor adventures.

Enjoy the boundary waters.

Great Story

Very entertaining. Give it a chance. Very few outdoorsy books out there and I am glad I found it.

enjoyable

a really good listen. One of my favorite. a well written story that felt like I was there

Unique experience

The listening experience was very unique. The storytelling was very different from most books. I felt like I was right there. Mittens was quite a character.

Excellent survival story

There are a couple parts that stretch credulity but mostly it's a beautiful and suspenseful survival story (fictional).
