  • On Trails: An Exploration

    Robert Moor

    Paperback (Simon & Schuster, July 4, 2017)
    New York Times Bestseller • Winner of the National Outdoor Book Award • Winner of the Saroyan International Prize for Writing • Winner of the Pacific Northwest Book Award • “The best outdoors book of the year.” —Sierra Club From a talent who’s been compared to Annie Dillard, Edward Abbey, David Quammen, and Jared Diamond, On Trails is a wondrous exploration of how trails help us understand the world—from invisible ant trails to hiking paths that span continents, from interstate highways to the Internet.While thru-hiking the Appalachian Trail, Robert Moor began to wonder about the paths that lie beneath our feet: How do they form? Why do some improve over time while others fade? What makes us follow or strike off on our own? Over the course of seven years, Moor traveled the globe, exploring trails of all kinds, from the miniscule to the massive. He learned the tricks of master trail-builders, hunted down long-lost Cherokee trails, and traced the origins of our road networks and the Internet. In each chapter, Moor interweaves his adventures with findings from science, history, philosophy, and nature writing. Throughout, Moor reveals how this single topic—the oft-overlooked trail—sheds new light on a wealth of age-old questions: How does order emerge out of chaos? How did animals first crawl forth from the seas and spread across continents? How has humanity’s relationship with nature and technology shaped world around us? And, ultimately, how does each of us pick a path through life? Moor has the essayist’s gift for making new connections, the adventurer’s love for paths untaken, and the philosopher’s knack for asking big questions. With a breathtaking arc that spans from the dawn of animal life to the digital era, On Trails is a book that makes us see our world, our history, our species, and our ways of life anew.

  • Sheep: Leaving The Flock and Finding God

    Robert Moore

    language (, Feb. 18, 2015)
    Robert Moore holds nothing back in his journey towards God and away from religion. Sheep: Leaving the Flock and Finding God, is the story of one man's journey to understand God. From surviving salvation at a young age, Bible College as an adult and then full time ministry, Robert discovers there is something more to Christianity, something more to having a soul and something more of God. "The only way I found to break free of Religion was to become an atheist. I had to throw away all I had been taught about the god of my youth in order meet the God of my adulthood. I had to be brave enough that after throwing everything away, and there was nothing left, including God, I had to be OK with it. If I have learned anything in my journey with God, it is that I am loved."Tho it would appear from the onset, Sheep is just another book about a hurt and resentful person who believes he has been discarded by the church, Robert constantly reminds the reader, he is just as much to blame for the dysfunction in organized religion as anyone else. "Every story I say from here on out, every defect of others I point out, every form of corruption I strip naked, I share the guilt as with the others 100% and for this I am sorry. I blindly followed and never questioned. I tithed, fasted, prayed, and served as I was instructed. I was a good follower of man, but failed as a follower of God."Through humor and biting wit, Robert takes on his journey of finding God and the joy of being found by a creator who was not judgmental or vain.

  • The Cherry Tree Buck and Other Stories: Tall Tales from the Pennsylvania Mountains

    Robin Moore

    Paperback (Independently published, April 16, 2019)
    Follow Storyteller Robin Moore and his grandfather as he remembers six barely-believable tales from his boyhood in the Pennsylvania Mountains. In this humorous collection, they discover a toothless rattlesnake, an eagle who thinks he is a chicken and, of course, a cherry tree buck. For ages 8 and Up. Parents: This is a wonderful read-aloud collection which will stimulate kids' imaginations while reminding them of the wonders of the natural world.From the Introduction: I learned about the woods from my grandfather.From the time I was old enough to hold a fishing pole, my grandfather and I spent every spare moment outdoors, enjoying whatever the wind and weather had to offer.In those days, our part of Pennsylvania was still pretty wild. We could see black bear and wild turkey from the back porch. We could pick blueberries and collect mushrooms. We could drink right out of the streams and walk through the hills all day without seeing another person.Sometimes we would wander off the familiar trails and plunge into the deepest, tangliest art of the thicket, just to see what was there. Sometimes we would sit quietly on the banks of a stream or at the edge of a meadow, waiting with watchful eyes. And sometimes, when we were very lucky, we would get a glimpse of the natural world that remains hidden to most people.Some of the things we saw were, literally, incredible. Whenever we tried to tell our family or friends, they’d accuse us of pulling their legs. After a while we just kept quiet.It’s been nearly forty years since my grandfather died, and I think it’s time to tell about our adventures. I once asked him, “What’s the secret to telling a good story?”He grinned. “No secret to it at all. Just start with the facts and go on from there ….”
  • Lewis & Clark - Tailor Made, Trail Worn: Army Life, Clothing, & Weapons of the Corps of Discovery

    Robert J. Moore Jr.

    Hardcover (Farcountry Press, April 1, 2003)
    When the Lewis and Clark Expedition crossed a continent in 1803 to 1806, they started out in U.S. Army uniforms, which gradually had to be replaced with simple leather garments. For parts of those uniforms, only a single drawing, pattern, or example survives. Historian Moore and artist Haynes have researched archives and museums to locate and verify what the men wore, and Haynes has painted and sketched the clothing in scenes of the trip. Also included are Indian styles the men adopted, and the wardrobes of the Creole interpreters and the French boatmen. Weapons and accessories round out this complete record of what the expedition wore or carried--and why. A great reference for artists, living history performers, museums, and military historians.
