Thinking of a good narrative of a kayaking expedition or adventure.





Here are some good ones: On Celtic Tides by Chris Duff (One man's journey
around Ireland by Sea Kayak) and Homelands by Byron Ricks (Kayaking the Inside
Passage).  Sadly I lent out and never got back two other great ones.  Maybe
you can track them down.  The first was about a solo circumnavigation of
Australia and the second was a about young women's solo paddle down the Inside
Passage.  Moral: never lend good kayak books - they just keep on paddlin'!


Enjoy
