Finally an Adventure novel featuring a Land Surveyor and his son. Check it out at Amazon.com Barnes and Nobel. E-book is out now and paper copy coming in weeks. A sequel is in the works. See also tlacorte.wordpress.com and a big thank you to all in the surveying community for supporting the book so far. Nothing but great reviews for "6 Miles With Courage"
