Outsider Bob Doucette

When you're busy trying to build a life, it's easy to forget who you are. Your job, your home, all the things we're expected to be can narrow your world, and ultimately quash your spirit. In Outsider, take a journey that hits the road across the West and explores mountainous wilderness. Meet the people who make this journey special. Take in the sights, sounds and smells of urban streets and wooded trails. And see how living the outdoor life not only revived a long-dormant love, but provided healing and direction when life went sideways. Outsider is a collection of stories focused on the outdoors, finding connection to wilderness and getting to know the place where you live through running, hiking and travel. It asks the tough questions about everyday life, loss, faith and stepping out of your comfort zone. It's part memoir, part travelogue, and all about exploring the world at the most visceral level - on foot and in the wild.
