Canoeing and Kayaking WisconsinCanoeing and Kayaking Wisconsin

"Doc Fletcher expands his thirst for waterways by scouting out and reporting on twenty rivers in Wisconsin. He includes a secret hidden trek down the Chicago River in Illinois for a total of twenty-one adventure filled paddling trips. Each chapter on specific rivers includes a suggested livery to rent a canoe or kayak, suggested paddling skill for the river, maps, the launch site, trip time, play-by-play river descriptions, fun river quotes from previous paddlers, and some tunes that reflect the musical nature of the river or the paddlers. Always included in Doc's river ramblings are his little "history chats". It's the answer to a paddler's lament, "Where in the heck are we?" Doc has the answers as he records his research on the towns from the original source material: tavern placements, tavern owners, and taverns patrons. Following a hard day of fighting the river current or your paddling partner, what better way to relax than to find a local pub serving your favorite brew. Doc's research never ends as he finds the best old time taverns to share river stories with your buddies or anyone who will listen."--Publisher description.
