4 out of 5 stars Excellent outdoor adventure   February 22, 2007
Made me want to canoe through the wilderness... and not! Beautiful country, the trip of a lifetime, but pretty harsh at times. I'd read this years ago and just bought the paperback of it. I recently saw an article about taking their family to Yellowstone, written by these authors and published in a parenting magazine. The great writing in that article and knowledge of "things outdoors" reminded me of this book. I had to read it again. It's that good.


5 out of 5 stars What a wonderful book   January 4, 1998
 3 out of 4 found this review helpful

I read this book the same week that I read Paddleing the Vermillion Sea and Running the Amazon. Although Water and Sky will never get the coverage and sales of the other two, it is vastly the superior book. Without the angst and pretense of Waterman or Kane, Kesselheim tells a warm story of adventure, conducted on a human scale by credible people. This one deserves to survive as a classic.


5 out of 5 stars This is the very cadence of paddling in the far north   November 29, 1997
 2 out of 2 found this review helpful

For those of you who yearn to paddle in the barrenlands of Canada this book is for you. Alan and Marypat paddled down the Peace River and wintered over on the shores of Lake Athabasca. They traveled north on the Dubawant and Kazan Rivers to finish in Baker Lake. Danger - if you read this in the winter months it will lead to severe cabin fever!
