New book for getting away from it all....

C.W. Gusewelle's new book, The Cabin - Away from it All, was published in time for Christmas this year. The author was good enough to let me do the cover and a few inside illustrations. From the publisher's description:

Join C.W. Gusewelle as he opens his cabin door -- and his heart -- to the reader in this moving collection of columns from his hideaway in the Missouri's Ozarks.

The cabin's influence on Gusewelle, columnist with The Kansas City Star, cannot be overstated.  In his 20s, after returning from the military, Gusewelle spent a solitary winter there, working to grow his skills as a writer. 

Part of each day he spent at the typewriter, part cutting stove wood to keep warm, and part hunting game for food.

Decades later, it remains his refuge.

Inside these pages are countless memories of family, friends, creatures great and small, and the inspiring message of man's necessary alliance with nature.
