Adirondack Canoe Waters, North Flow

Rating:
Summary: Not Just A Guide; A Labour Of Love!
Review: No one knows the Northern Adirondack rivers and streams better than Paul Jamieson. Having lived nearly his entire life here, he brings forth a book that reads like a detailed guidebook combined with a personal diary. Nearly every canoable river is reviewed including details such as curves and bends, rock outcroppings, rapids, waterfalls and other unique geographical features. Heaped with historic stories of trappers, sportsmen and early environmentalists, Jamieson's prose reads like a personal letter of a dream vacation. Incredibly detailed, the author even breaks down sections of rivers to the tenth of a mile to make sure the canoeist misses nothing. Plenty of great black & white photos with hand drawn maps round out this great guide book. It is due to be re-released soon.
