On a seven month canoe trip, new scenery, weather, and situations were expected; new friends were an added delight. Ten of these people tell some of their life stories as they relate to the Missouri River of the Dakotas and Montana, including paddle wheelers and horse-powered ferries, ice flow hopping, a hilarious account of two kayakers trying to beg water in what looked like orange jump suits, and a wanabe canoer searching 120 miles of river for his wayward canoe. Each author describes the Lewis and Clark monuments of their area in 2005, the year of their 200th anniversary. True Americana in a small package, with original pictures of the West.Kurz, James B. is the author of 'We Were on the Missouri, 2005', published 2007 under ISBN 9781434308993 and ISBN 1434308995.
