Cowboy Now

I was reading over the other reviews and I must be a slow reader. It took me a week to read this book. But now /cowboy now/, working a 10 hour day infront of a computer never felt so good -- because I could be stuck in a snow cave. Thanks author for putting it all in perspective. Two thumbs up!

read as an adventure story, a motivational piece, or for problem solving, Cowboy Now reads with great purpose. i do have one complaint, I'd like a map somewhere in the book (maybe even a photo or two).

What a great read! I burned through the book in one night, couldn't put it down. Amazing Story! Advice for the author, next book better be longer, I enjoy your style!

I thought this book would be more outdoors type like "Into the Wild". I was pleasantly surprised to find it was much more similar to "The Alchemist". I though it was great and read straight though in one sitting. If you'd like a fresh perspective on life I recommend this book.

As a slow reader I picked up this book last night thinking I'd skim a few pages to see if this kid could write. Considering I was up until 3:00 AM because I absolutely could not put the book down, I decided Carlson could write like birds can fly. His descriptive, casual style puts the reader right next to him on this harrowing adventure. Anyone who has the good fortune to experience this story will have new found respect for both Mother Nature and the human spirit. And as I sit in my mass-produced office cube, sleep deprived and finding it hard to stay focused on work, I think to myself, "well....at least I'm not in a snow cave" and it makes me feel a thousand time better. Sincere gratitude to the author who reminds us all that if we take care of "Today", the rest will follow.
