More about the book
A celebrity hunter, outdoorswoman, and social media star invites readers on a spirit wilderness adventure of skill, daring, and healthy living. For the new wave of women and girls in outdoor sports, Eva Shockey is a real-life Katniss Everdeen--a reality star on the Outdoor Channel who defies the stereotype that hunting is a man's game. She grew up expecting to be a dancer and model--just like her glamorous mother. But something about spending vacations RV-ing across America and on big-game hunts in the Yukon with her dad sparked in her an enduring passion for outdoor pursuits. In OUTSIDER, Eva tells a very personal story of choosing the less-traveled path to a rewarding life. For her, that has meant staying rooted in wildness, hunting as a way of "harvesting" food, caring deeply about sustainability and healthy eating, and getting closer to God in the cathedrals of nature. Her story will empower women and girls to reject gender-based stereotypes and expectations, and set out in pursuit of their own unique dreams."
