The material presented in this book is easy to understand, and also entertaining. The entire book can be read within a day. I recommend this book to learn the basics of canoeing.

I think that this book covered a lot of the material needed for canoeing and is a good guide for teaching younger kids before going on a canoe trip. That is the reason that I looked at this book because I am an environmental educator and was planning a canoe trip. It is a good source.
