Living on the Edge

One man. A thousand close calls. A life lived without brakes.Living on the Edge is the unforgettable memoir of Daniel Boone, a descendant of pioneer stock, who has been courting risk since before he could walk. At nine months old, he crawled out a window onto a rooftop. As a boy, he juggled paper routes, altar boy duties, and a fiercely loyal dog named Tar Baby through the streets of Bethesda, Maryland. From childhood scrapes and sibling rivalries with his twin sister Peggy to military school, college adventures at the University of Virginia, military service, entrepreneurial gambles, and the family bonds that held it all together, Boone recounts a life defined by grit, humor, faith, and an absolute refusal to sit still.Honest, funny, and deeply American, Living on the Edge is for anyone who believes life is too short to spend it standing on solid ground.
