How to Survive a Bear Attack — a memoir by Claire Cameron — is three things all at once: a literary page-turner, a murder mystery, and a beach read. Plus, nature writing at its finest. Cameron and I talk about bears, wilderness, wildness, and more.

Host Justin Maiman from Cairo shares his latest inspirations on the "Ginger Radio Hour." Live from WGXC's Acra studio, the show features music, field recordings, performances, and interviews, primarily with people in and around the Catskill Mountains of New York.
