Canoeing & kayaking

Series: Ultimate Adventures

This book is stunningly illustrated and has something for everyone, from whitewater adrenaline junkie to extreme sea kayaker. The adventures cover every sort of paddling venue - from mountain chasms, gentle rivers and lakes to crashing surf, dramatic coasts and the oceans beyond them. Paddle from the frozen wastes of Alaska to the tropical rivers of South America.

Explore the rivers and seas of Europe and visit the stunning waters of the Far East and Australasia. Striking full page photographs are matched with lively text that brings the 100

canoeing and kayaking adventures to life.

AUTHORS: Eugene Buchanan is the former Editor-in-Chief of Paddler magazine, and has written about the outdoors for more than 20 years, from working the Beijing Olympics for NBC to writing for ESPN.com. He is an avid adventurer with several first descents to his credit. His passion for travelling, writing and paddling has taken him around the world, to more than 30 countries on six continents.

Jason Smith is Managing Editor of Canoe & Kayak UK. A river running whitewater paddler at heart, he's paddled all over the world and represented Great Britain at the Freestyle World Championships. He has tried his hand at nearly every kind of canoeing and kayaking, and even completed the famous Devizes to Westminster International Canoe Race in the non-stop K2 class. His favourite pastimes are getting trashed in his playboat at the whitewater course in Nottingham, sea kayaking and open canoeing.

James Weir is a canoeist, photographer and writer. James lives, explores and competes all over the world; introducing paddle sports to young people, coaching white water canoeing and guiding rafts down some of Europe's most challenging rivers. James represented Great Britain and Switzerland in white water canoeing. He has been seeded in the top 10 white water canoeists in the World since 1999.
