I haven't found it yet, but just finished his "Dances with > Waves", about a circumnavigation of Ireland. It's wonderful. Blazing paddles has just been reprinted, and the local bookshops in Aberdeen are certainly stocking copies. Blazing paddles is ** the ** most entertaining paddling book I've read, and IMHO a better read than Dances with Waves which was pretty good too - I couldn't recommend it more highly. Probably now be able to get a new copy via amazon.com. Cheers Colin Calder just back yesterday from a scorching trip paddling around the inner sound - Skye, Rassay, and the Crowlins :-) *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List Submissions: paddlewise_at_lists.intelenet.net Subscriptions: paddlewise-request_at_lists.intelenet.net Website: http://www.paddlewise.net/ ***************************************************************************Received on Mon Aug 02 1999 - 02:04:09 PDT
