Winter's Comin' is a modern pioneer adventure story, a true tale of abandonning the conveniences of contemporary life to pursue the rewards of the challenging life. Jim Beaty moved his family from the suburbs to the woods to build and live in a log cabin without electricity or running water because he was determined to fulfill his dreams of self-reliant living. The family persevered through ice, squirrels, government cheese, and more. Thanks to his wife's support, Jim can look back without saying, "I wish I had." Written from Jim's perspective, the text is ultimately the work of his eldest son, Jake. Jake hopes his book is entertaining and encouraging even for readers with no desire to life off-grid or build a log house. May this story motivate you to do the hard work of pursuing your dreams and living without regrets.
