Author John Gibson uses an eight-day kayaking exploration as the base for his observations and musings on the significance of midcoast Maine rivers to Maine's and the country's history, and on their future use and protection. Like Thoreau did in A Week on the Concord, Gibson shows us the value of flooking closer at a world near to home, letting the natural and human history of the place sink in.
