Good Reading - "Greenland Expedition" by Lonnie Du

Post by bhotrum »

Just wanted to let people know there is an amazing kayaking journey book with color glossy photos by Lonnie Dupre called " Greenland Expedition". I picked it up in the bargain bin at Chapters for 4.99 ! The book is coffee table style with large 11 x 17 color shots of their 4500 mile odyssey around the coasts of Greenland. It's an amazing tale of the hazards associated with navigating icebergs, flow ice, camping on the rock coasts, and dealing with sudden gales. There is also alot of history covered with Greenland hunting kayaks and how they are built, their traditions of teaching rolling first before anything else etc. The topography in this book is just astounding to say the least.

cheers...
