Paddle To The Amazon by Starkell, Don

The Ultimate 12,000-Mile Canoe Adventure

An account of an extraordinary father-and-sons canoe expedition from the heart of North America down into the Amazon basin, chronicling months of relentless paddling, extreme weather, rapids, hunger and illness, and close encounters with isolated communities and wildlife; the narrative combines vivid descriptions of landscape and river travel with reflections on endurance, family bonds and the personal cost and rewards of pursuing a perilous, long-distance adventure.
