Default Practical Kayaking & Canoeing FS

Practical Guide to Kayaking and Canoeing by Bill Mattos New Condition.
A really superb book on the subject...we are kayakers ourselves,and I
would thoroughly recommend this book,a massive encyclopedia style
thing 12 inches by 9 and half approx 256 pages.Great colour
illustrations & diagramsIt really isn't one of these books that covers
only the basics,but goes into great detail on technique,picture by
picture,boat styles and style evolution, paddles whitewater,
funboating,sea and canoe,including all the well known and advanced
strokes for all types of boat,sculling ferrygliding,breaking out
,pry,revers paddle,rolling in kayak & canoe various equipment ,canoe
history,advanced grade 4 & 5 whitewater etc. I would say that the
largest sections are on kayaking,but having said that there is also a
lot on the other types of boat too.
