Steve Smith in conversation with Mag Ruffman

An inside view of a person's life is normally available only to the person living that life.

In this lively and unconventional book you'll get the chance to explore Steve Smith's life from the inside, through his own thought processes and emotional reactions.

Steve's long-time friend, Mag Ruffman, recorded and transcribed more than forty-five hours of in-depth interviews with Steve and then distilled them into a highly readable account of an unusual life.

Steve's insights are useful, practical and surprising as he discusses dealing with failure, finding your place in the world without conforming, getting what you want in life, being true to yourself, understanding the creative process and realizing the importance of living in the moment. Honest, illuminating and heartfelt, this collection of interviews connects you with the core reasons for Steve's success and irrepressible spirit.

Steve's life lessons are worth reading, writing down and following to the letter - it's a map to personal and financial freedom. – Patrick McKenna (Harold Green, The Red Green Show)

A fascinating read. I learned more about Steve Smith reading this book than I did working with him for 18 years. I only wished he had talked about me more...it would have saved me years of therapy. – Peter Keleghan (Ranger Gord, The Red Green Show)

Geez, this guy sure thinks a lot! – Wayne Robson (Mike Hamar, The Red Green Show)

To quote the great Kermit the Frog: "It isn't easy being Green." – Jeff Lumby (Winston Rothschild III, The Red Green Show)

Having been happily saddled with sharing my off moments with lake-wrecker Hap Shaughnessy, I am proud to have read this fine work, making it easier to familiarize myself with the map-mind that is Steve's. Bless his book. Amen to another. – Gordon Pinsent (Hap Shaughnessy, The Red Green Show)
