Here is the first full-color, step-by-step book on all aspects of
canoeing! With a gear-buying guide and hundreds of color photos, this is
the clearest, most accessible instructional guide available--for
paddling on ponds, lakes, rivers, or oceans. It covers choosing and
transporting a canoe, paddling techniques, accessories, and safety and
offers a range of recreational ideas, including day, weekend, and
expedition-level trips.
