When I Was Younger Roland Wauer

Authors seldom write about their personal interests and favorite things. Although When I Was Younger is not an autobiography - My Wild Life, A Memoir of Adventures within the National Parks - pretty well addressed that. Younger includes such personal interests as preferred food and drinks, music, and various outdoor interests.




Younger is a smorgasbord of things that I have most enjoyed and the many unexpected experiences in nature. Examples include encountering a lynx in my path at Denali, finding a bear blocking my path at Big Bend, being tracked by a Mountain Lion, climbing Mt. Shasta twice, observing army ants at Chichen Itza, and discovering that I was camping in a fer de lance research site near Catemaco.




When I was Younger emphasis the author's love of nature and wild places, and the abundant wildlife along the way.
