Library Journal
A sensible, personal discussion of canoe camping, particularly in the Boundary Waters Canoe Area, based on Bell and her husband's 15 years of experience. For her, elegance refers to things done simply, efficiently, and with style. She decribes for beginners how to prepare, what to take, and how to enjoy such a trip. This is not a manual of paddling techniques, map reading, or exotic wild food preparation. Instead, it is a pleasant, encouraging, environmentally conscious introductionwith brief lists of equipment sources and suggested readingwritten by a convert who learned much through trial and error and who wants to share the pleasure with others.
