Paddle Your Own Canoe – Nick Offerman

Paddle Your Own Canoe: One Man’s Fundamentals For Delicious Living
Author, Nick Offerman

Growing a perfect moustache, grilling red meat, wooing a woman – who better to deliver this tutelage than the always charming, always manly Nick Offerman? Nick is well known for his role as “Parks and Recreation’s” Ron Swanson.Combining his trademark comic voice and very real expertise in woodworking (he runs his own woodshop), Paddle Your Own Canoe features tales from Offerman’s childhood in small-town Minooka, Illinois, his theater days in Chicago, his beginnings as a carpenter/actor and the hilarious winning of his now-wife Megan Mullally. It also offers hard-bitten battle strategies in the arenas of manliness, love, style, religion, woodworking, and outdoor recreation, among many other savory entrees.

A mix of amusing anecdotes, opinionated lessons and rants, sprinkled with offbeat gaiety, Paddle Your Own Canoe will not only tickle readers pink but may also rouse them to put down their smart phones, study a few sycamore leaves, and maybe even build (and paddle) their own canoes.
