Buch. Zustand: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - What does it really take to paddle the Mississippi River from its quiet headwaters in remote Minnesota to the Gulf of Mexico In Source to Sea, Appalachian Trail thru-hiker John Pugh and Jessica Robinson turn a weekend promise into a 73-day odyssey-more than 2,000 miles of currents, critters, comedy, and choices that test body, mind, and partnership. It's also a test of patience and relationships, paddling ten hours a day and rarely more than ten feet from your partner for weeks on end.Pugh and Robinson face a range of challenges, from cold sleet to relentless heat, thunderous storms, looming hurricane threats, and unpredictable currents-all while keeping their sense of humor (mostly) intact.While paddling the river, they partnered with and promoted The Audubon Society's Upper Mississippi River Campaign, using their journey to highlight the importance of protecting the wild waters and river communities that sustain both wildlife and people.The couple veers off the main channel to follow the remote Atchafalaya River; they trade barge traffic for wilderness, commerce for quiet, and the expected route for unexpected discoveries. Along the lower Mississippi, they encounter relentless solitude-days defined by wide water, distant levees, and the haunting beauty of a river few ever truly see.Equal parts pulse-quickening adventure, honest travel memoir, and laugh-out-loud reflection, Source to Sea explores what happens when two people leave the safe path and let the river decide the next bend. For those inspired to launch their own journey, the book includes planning insights and hard-won lessons about gear, logistics, and life on the river.Featuring more than 40 full-color photographs taken during the expedition, the book brings to life the raw beauty, challenges, and perspectives that define life in a canoe, and what it truly means to undertake an expedition of this scale.Perfect For Readers Who:Love true adventure and travel memoirs that blend humor, grit, and reflectionAre drawn to river culture, paddling, thru-hiking, and long-distance expeditionsAppreciate stories of partnership, resilience, solitude, and absurd moments in natureWant practical takeaways for planning their own outdoor adventuresBook DetailsGenre: Adventure / Travel MemoirThemes: Resilience, partnership, exploration, solitude, nature, humor, riskTone: Gritty, reflective, uplifting, humorousIf You Enjoy Books Like These.If you're a fan of Wild by Cheryl Strayed, A Walk in the Woods by Bill Bryson, or Into the Wild by Jon Krakauer, you'll love Source to Sea-a story that delivers both heart-pounding challenges and hilarious, heartfelt revelations that come when you follow a river beyond the map.…
