The Katy Trail is a monument to the pioneer spirit and US westward expansion, and a testament to Missourians' love for their parks and outdoor spaces. Katy Trail: A Guided Tour through History is the guide every trail user needs to explore the trail and appreciate the epic role the corridor plays in the history of the state and the nation. Much of the Katy Trail parallels the Missouri River, placing trail users squarely in the footsteps of Daniel Boone's late-in-life frontier explorations and the first stretch of the Lewis and Clark expedition. The first rails of the MKT - or Missouri-Kansas-Texas - Railroad were laid in the 1860s, but more than a century later, when the MKT owners were set to retire the rail line, cyclists and preservationists conceived the country's longest Rails to Trails project, now stretching 237 miles. Get insider tips on each section such as Defiance to Machens (34 miles), including detailed directions, tips for where to dine, and notable sights along the way. You'll even learn how much shade the trail provides so you'll know how much sunscreen to pack. Or plan your day based on a themed itinerary like a Family Outing or Historic Foray. Local author and avid hiker and cyclist Kathy Schrenk is your personal trail guide on these paths she's traversed many times over. Ride the Katy with her guide in your back pocket to show you the way to enjoy centuries of history along miles of scenic river country.

"[Fit at Mid-Life] reinforces the message that fitness can and should be for everyone, no matter their age, size, gender, or ability." ––SELF What if you could be fitter now than you were in your twenties? And what if you could achieve it while feeling more comfortable and confident in your body? In Fit at Mid-Life, bloggers and philosophy professors Samantha Brennan and Tracy Isaacs share the story of how they got the fittest they'd ever been by age 50––and how you can, too. Their approach to fitness is new and different—it champions strength, health, and personal accomplishment over weight loss and aesthetics––and explores the many challenges, questions, and issues women face when seeking fitness in their forties, fifties, and beyond. Drawing from the latest research, Brennan and Isaac deliver a wealth of concrete advice on everything from how to keep bones strong to what types of fitness activities give the biggest returns. Taking a feminist perspective, they also challenge society’s default whats, whys, and hows of every aspect of getting fit to show how women can best take charge of their health—no matter what their shape, size, age, or ability. "Fit at Mid-Life combines personal stories with scientific evidence, feminist reflections and how-to advice for both women and men who don’t want fitness to fade away in their middle years."––The Toronto Star

In 1849, several hundred thousand Europeans and Americans trekked across the country for the gold fields of California - the Gold Rush being a defining moment in this country's short (European) history. John Clark followed the same historic roads and trails, retracing that journey through history. His travels took him through violent ghettos and even more violent hurricanes, desert sandstorms and blazing heat - cycling in areas where no sane person would choose to cycle. Along the way, Clark meets crazed war veterans, failing farmers, unemployed Mexican migrants, the washed up and those left over from the American Dream, which the Gold Rush had done so much to form. His journey also takes him through the wildest, the most beautiful and remotest parts of America. Part travelogue, part political history, all incredibly well-written.
