Common Man, Uncommon Life Magazine

It is a biography of a person chosen for adventure, no one could have set out from early childhood to live literally over a hundred wilderness journeys. Like a loving mother and a mad dog, adventure has filled the lonely void in Stan Walchuk Jr’s life, and chased him down city streets, over country roads, down rivers, through mountain passes.

It begins normal enough, a child raised in a typical city neighborhood. But from the time he could walk the colorful thread that wove the fabric that is his life was adventure – one wild, hilarious or hair raising episode after another. This biography is written with a story teller’s voice that is at moments sensitive, at other times strong, but always distinct. Vivid prose so that readers see and live these adventures as if through their own eyes. Head on and face to face the serenity, drama, and cruelty of adventure.
