Titles

  • Cadillac Desert
  • Duncan, David James. " Valmiki's Palm," My Life as Told by Waterer: Confessions, Druidic Rants, Reflections, Bird-Watchinqs, Fish-Stalkinqs. Visions, Songs and Prayers Refracting Light, from Living Rivers, in the Age of the Industrial Dark Sierra Club Books, 2001, 3-30.

Duncan is the author of the popular teenage novel, The River Why 1984. From Amazon: "David James Duncan's first novel has gained an increasingly wide audience over the years--some might even call it a following. This coming-of-age tale of Gus Orviston's search for the Pacific Northwest's elusive steelhead, a metaphor for Gus's internal quest for self-knowledge, appeals to all who cherish a good yarn and memorable characters. Uncle Zeke's colorful rendition of Gus's conception on the banks of the Deschutes River is itself worth the price of purchase."

  • Duncan, David James. The River Why.
  • Life of Pi: [[1]]
  • Water: The Fate of Our Most Precious Resource (Paperback) by Marq de Villiers
