Travels With A kayak

Wednesday, October 24, 2012

Travels with a Kayak tells the story of Whit Deschner”s country-by-country kayaking tour. Deschner”s tra vels took him to New Zealand, Nepal, Pakistan, Turkey, the E verglades and the Grand Canyon. ‘Although it’s not advisable to judge a book by its cover, the photographs gracing the cover of Travels with a Kayak make it hard not to be intrigued, even without reading a word. A cowboy, a Buddhist monk, an English bobby, and an Indian holy man stare out from separate photos, each holding a well-used kayak paddle. Even i& #102; you’ve never remotely considered whitewater kayaking, Whit Deschner sure makes it clear that you are missing an awful lot of fun if you don’t give it a try. Travels with a Kayak follows the death-defying author around the world as he drags his kayak from country to country in search of life. Readers won’t be disappointed as they join Deschner for a humorous ride through New Zealand, Turkey, Indonesia, Pakistan, the U.S., India, Japan, and all over the rest of 16;he world.
