Nothin' But Try by Tall Paul

This compelling biography about the life of Shane Drury will tax every emotion you have. Like the Titanic, the ending is well known, but the story leading up to that point is inspirational, to say the least, and will leave you wishing that you had met this man in person. Shane was a champion both as a rodeo cowboy and a person. His story is one of a hardened physical athlete with a soft heart and beautiful personality. Accented with several images and photographs, this story walks you through Shane's life from beginning to end. It highlights his many accomplishments, friendships, and struggles. You will feel as if you are there with Shane as you read his story. Shane's faith was as great as anyone you could ever imagine, and each chapter of this book is captioned with a verse from the Bible as it relates to the contents of the chapter.

Former cowboy, Paul Drury, also known as Tall Paul, wrote this inspiring biography on promise to his son Shane Drury, who was diagnosed with cancer. Tall Paul now lives as a mountain man and author, totally off grid in the mountains of northwest Colorado.

Paul, Tall: - As a child, I always wanted to be a mountain man and live life in the wild country. During high school and for a couple of years after graduation, I worked for the forest service, hunted, trapped and fished. I eventually worked on a cattle ranch in Wyoming for a while and then decided to enlist in the U.S. Air Force. I traveled overseas and had assignments in California, Wyoming and South Dakota. As a single parent I raised three boys. After the boys had grown, I moved to Colorado, where I currently reside. I purchased some mountain property and moved onto that property when I retired. It was the life I had always dreamed of, the life of a mountain man, living totally off grid, in a cabin, in the mountains with my golden retriever, Hunter. I now hunt and fish, cut firewood for winter heat, melt snow for water for washing, get drinking water from a free running mountain spring and enjoy writing in the winter months. I post lots of photographs on Facebook and have a huge following. My home page on Facebook is Tall Paul, Mountain Man, Author, Storyteller and High Country Culinary Artist.
