Current read — @mcgrathben's book about rivers and the men who run them. A perfect book for this time of year. I love river reading and travel memoirs. This one's a bit of both. Loving it so far. Thanks, Ben! @VintageAnchor

“I like what being a champion rib-breaker says about my life,” he writes. “Rib breaks and their pain are a reminder of my foolhardiness, perhaps, or my addiction to adventure, or my need for comeuppance for having led such a fortunate, happy life.”

“You’re going to die,” everyone warns Rinker Buck, before and during his 2,000-mile river journey on a wooden flatboat. His new book, “Life on the Mississippi,” recounts his experience.
