At last, the full story behind Megan Mullally and Nick Offerman's epic romance, including stories, portraits, and the occasional puzzle. How did they do it? They came from completely different families, endured a significant age difference, and were separated by the gulf of several social strata. Megan loved books and art history; Nick loved hammers. But much more than these seemingly unsurpassable obstacles were the values they held in common: respect, decency, the ability to mention genitalia in almost any context, and an abiding obsession with the songs of Tom Waits.

Welcome to Jeremy's farm. It's an idyllic spot, offering picturesque views across the Cotswolds, bustling hedgerows, woodlands and natural springs. Jeremy always liked the idea being a farmer. But, while he was barrelling around the world having more fun with cars than was entirely reasonable, it seemed obvious that the actual, you know, farming was much better left to someone else. Then one day he decided he would do the farming himself. After all, how hard could it be?

It’s not that he hates his friends and family — he’s not a monster — he’s just beat, which is why his son’s (ruthless) first full sentence, “I’d like to play alone, please,” has since become his mantra.

Rainn Wilson’s memoir about growing up geeky and finally finding his place in comedy, faith, and life. For nine seasons Rainn Wilson played Dwight Schrute, everyone's favorite work nemesis and beet farmer. Viewers of The Office fell in love with the character and grew to love the actor who played him even more. Rainn founded a website and media company, SoulPancake, that eventually became a best-selling book of the same name. He also started a hilarious Twitter feed (sample tweet: “I'm not on Facebook” is the new “I don't even own a TV”).

In Nick Offerman's view, we as a country can be doing a better job when it comes to decency. While most of the country has spent the last few years fighting about everything from politics to the existence of science, there are some things we can all agree about, like that we only really need one flavor of Oreo cookies. And that despite all the challenges we're currently facing, America can get it together if we can, simply, rise above it all, and admit that a lot what we're fighting about is actually pretty stupid, especially when told in Nick's signature comedic voice.

Most of us have instinctive evidence the world is ending - balmy December days, face-to-face conversation replaced with heads-to-screens zomboidism, a world at constant war, a political system in disarray. We hear some myths and lies so frequently that they feel like truths: Civilization is humankind’s greatest accomplishment. Progress is undeniable. Count your blessings. You’re lucky to be alive here and now. Civilized to Death counters the idea that progress is inherently good, arguing that the "progress" defining our age is analogous to an advancing disease.

The Battle of Dunkirk, in May/June 1940, is remembered as a stunning defeat yet a major victory as well. The Nazis had beaten back the Allies and pushed them across France to the northern port of Dunkirk. In the ultimate race against time, more than 300,000 Allied soldiers were daringly evacuated across the Channel. This moment of German aggression was used by Winston Churchill as a call to Franklin Roosevelt to enter the war.

Trent Preszler thought he was living the life he always wanted, with a job at a winery and a seaside Long Island home, when he was called back to the life he left behind. After years of estrangement, his cancer-stricken father had invited him to South Dakota for Thanksgiving. It would be the last time he saw his father alive. Preszler’s only inheritance was a beat-up wooden toolbox that had belonged to his father, who was a cattle rancher, rodeo champion, and Vietnam War Bronze Star Medal recipient. This family heirloom befuddled Preszler.

With this updated edition of his earlier book, A Place of My Own, listeners can revisit the inspired, intelligent, and often hilarious story of Pollan’s realization of a room of his own—a small, wooden hut, his “shelter for daydreams” — built with his admittedly unhandy hands. Inspired by both Thoreau and Mr. Blandings, A Place of My Own not only works to convey the history and meaning of all human building, it also marks the connections between our bodies, our minds, and the natural world.

Description
A humorous and rousing set of literal and figurative sojourns as well as a mission statement about comprehending, protecting, and truly experiencing the outdoors, fueled by three journeys undertaken by actor, humorist, and New York Times best-selling author Nick Offerman
Nick Offerman has always felt a particular affection for the Land of the Free - not just for the people and their purported ideals but to the actual land itself: the bedrock, the topsoil, and everything in between that generates the health of your local watershed. In his new book, Nick takes a humorous, inspiring, and elucidating trip to America's trails, farms, and frontier to examine the people who inhabit the land, what that has meant to them and us, and to the land itself, both historically and currently.
In 2018, Wendell Berry posed a question to Nick, a query that planted the seed of this book, sending Nick on two memorable journeys with pals - a hiking trip to Glacier National Park with his friends Jeff Tweedy and George Saunders, as well as an extended visit to his friend James Rebanks, the author of The Shepherd's Life and English Pastoral. He followed that up with an excursion that could only have come about in 2020 - Nick and his wife, Megan Mullally, bought an Airstream trailer to drive across (several of) the United States. These three quests inspired some “deep-ish" thinking from Nick, about the history and philosophy of our relationship with nature in our national parks, in our farming, and in our backyards; what we mean when we talk about conservation; and the importance of outdoor recreation, all subjects very close to Nick's heart.
With witty, heartwarming stories and a keen insight into the human problems we all confront, this is both a ramble through and celebration of the land we all love.
Ce que les critiques en disent
An Amazon Best of the Month Pick
"I found the book both entertaining and inspiring...[it] has depths you may not expect from an actor/comedic performer/woodworker who goes to great lengths to entertain the audience, but also has me thinking about the choices I make as I live in the world." (John Warner, Chicago Tribune)
"Offerman's thoughtful and hilarious musings at the nexus of human life and nature, particularly through the lens of John Muir and Aldo Leopold ... serves another welcome reminder that nature is for all." (Smithsonian Magazine)

What a listen... a knowledgable and entertaining!
Highly recommend this as an audio book, both to help the world save some paper and secondly to listen to the comforting, yet serious tone Nick is bringing to his opinions.
The book strikes a balance of historical research and summarization, with a glance at the present from the author in a matter of fact way. But Offerman truly brings his comedic brand (which I genuinely believe to be his personality) to the narration and content discussed. it's refreshing to read (or listen) to a long form opinion piece about the present state of America, but also the world at large and the challenges we face. This combined with the anecdotal evidence of Nick's recent experiences provides a truly compelling auditory experience, where you can imagine yourself sitting down over a beverage and hearing the eloquent opinions of a man that all of us could do some learning from.
Again I would highly recommended this audio book and have done so many times already... It will be interesting to see how this ages and the truth roles out over how society has (hopefully come together and) dealt with these issues.

Utterly hilarious!
Mr. Offerman,
I want to thank you for the work you put into creating this book. I live in Canada. We have many national and provincial parks that are protected as well. I would encourage you and Megan, (if you get the opportunity) to experience them as well.
You're humour, witt and honesty made this listen so much fun! Highly recommend this to many friends and family
Cheers,
Dave

For the Offerman fan
If you like his spoken meter, the content of his life, and classic no-BS point of view, this is your book. If you’re looking for a story from a joke cracking clown, then skip this one. Nick is more editorial in this instalment and gives political opinions along with vulnerable family anecdotes.

Entertaining but a bit political
I love nick and the fact he narrated it himself was awesome.. I gave 4 stars because of the political content near the end. Was hoping for a bit of an escape from politics and it was mostly what I was looking for, but just a bit too much near the end. So if you don’t like politics just beware of that .. other than that I enjoyed it quite a bit . Great job nick!

Making poetry out of the world in which we live.
As a meat loving human being whom also enjoys walks outdoors and is attempting to share that love with his children, this book resonates with me in quite a few ways.
Nick’s ability to capture the breadth of nature in words, astonishes and delights me to no end. I could see in my mind those glacier peaks, that crystal water, and those sheep farms across the pond.
This has served to further inspire me, and instilled a new sense of vigour to make sure to be responsible in the ways I choose to enjoy nature, enjoy the world in which I live, and respectfully share with my children.
I will admit I did listen to this mostly in my motor vehicle, so for the trees I saved in audiobook format, it did a whole lot of good when I burned 8 hours of fuel.
I would recommend this listen to anyone really. Even if you disagree with Nicks outlook, that smooth voice delivers each phrase like it’s audible nectar tantalizing your earbuds.

More Nature talk, less preaching to the choir please
Book started off great with a nature adventure, until it took a very political turn, which is fine, but we never got out of it the rest of the book. 4/5ths of the book are basically "white man bad" "republican bad", which like yeah, obviously, but I bought this book to hear about Nick going hiking and adventuring, and being in nature. The white guilt this book oozes just gets old after a while, and that's coming from someone who agrees with Nick on everything!
