Ruggedness, dependability, and handiness are the pinnacle characteristics of our most celebrated archetypes. Ski patrollers, river guides, professional rock climbers, and the like all possess a certain type of outdoorsy toughness and reliability that is aspirational. And you may be surprised to find out world famous actors do too. You surely know Nick Offerman from one of his many memorable roles,  like Ron Swanson on Parks And Recreation and General Sidney in the latest Mission Impossible. And, when he’s not acting or performing on comedy tours, you can find Nick paddling the Los Angeles River or scrambling up peaks in the nearest National Park.  Relying on himself in a pinch informs everything Nick does, from acting to woodworking. And his new book,  Little Woodchucks: Offerman Woodshop’s Guide to Tools and Tomfoolery, is Nick’s gospel of do-it-yourselfedness, a starting point to building a tough and resourceful identity. Because eventually, we’re all gonna have to fix a flat tire or build a little shelter in the woods.
