Read about the exploits of a proper British eccentric as Gordon, known as Crow, amuses us with a series of canoeing adventures around the UK, as he progresses from beginner to ocean paddler. Well, maybe not ocean paddler as such, but he manages to avoid crossing oceans by accident anyway. Interesting companions, wild coastlines, battles against the weather and against Bed and Breakfast landladies, and some slightly hairy episodes all add up to a very entertaining read.
Told in Crow’s unique, humorous style, the reader is introduced to Scottish isles and lochs, to mountain summits not generally visited on the average canoeing jaunt, and on at least one occasion, to the bottom of a river. This little book will appeal not just to keen canoeists, but also to anyone with a love of the outdoors or for that matter, anyone with a sense of humour.
Fully illustrated, with art work and photographs by the author.
