Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Two Hundred Miles on the Delaware River: A Canoe Cruise From Its Headwaters to the Falls at Trenton At the outset the intention of this narrative was to give a succinct account of a canoe cruise down the Delaware to enable future voyageurs to estimate the time required for such a trip, and also to present some of the obstacles and pleasures likely to be encountered. We have departed from our original plan, however, because the trip was crowded with matters of interest relating to local scenery, towns and characteristic bits, so that the subject grew on our hands in a way most pleasant, at least to us, and it was natural to suppose that others would be entertained in reading about them if unable to see for themselves. The Delaware valley proves an inexhaustible field for the artist, presenting, as it does, at every point a vista of landscape and background, the equal of which many among us have travelled far to see. To the canoeist-photographer every turn brings to view an opportunity for an interesting exposure. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book A Paddler s Guide to the Delaware River written by Gary Letcher and published by Rutgers University Press. This book was released on 2012-02-17 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Henry Hudson explored the Delaware River in 1609, he dubbed it “one of the finest, best, and pleasantest rivers in the world.” Today, those same qualities make the Delaware one of the most popular rivers for recreational use in the United States. Although in places a near-wilderness, the Delaware is easily accessible to millions of residents. On any summer day there may be thousands of people rushing down its exciting rapids or lazing through its serene eddies. A Paddler’s Guide to the Delaware River is an indispensable resource for anyone who wants to experience the Delaware River in a kayak, canoe, raft, or tube—or, for that matter, an automobile or an armchair. Reading the book is like travelling down the river with an experienced guide. It charts the non-tidal Delaware 200 miles from Hancock, New York, to Trenton, New Jersey, describing access points, rapids, natural features, villages, historical sites, campgrounds, outfitters, and restaurants. The Delaware comes alive as the author introduces some of the people, places, events, and controversies that have marked the river from earliest times to the present day. Completely revised, the third edition offers: An overview of the river including watershed, history, place names, paddlecraft, safety, and fishing. The River Guide: ten sections that can each be paddled in one day (about 20 miles), with a mile-by-mile account of rapids, access, natural features, historic sites, and other features. All new maps, with names for virtually every rapid, eddy, and other river feature, plus detailed diagrams for routes through even the most severe rapids. Features in the River Guide highlight the people, events, natural history, and communities that define the river experience, such as Tom Quick, the infamous “avenger of the Delaware”; the mysterious migration of eels, the battle over Tocks Island Dam; and many others. Appendices of Important Contacts, Outfitters and Campgrounds, River Trip Checklists, and more. Whether you are a novice out for an afternoon float, a seasoned adventurer on an overnight expedition, or a resident fascinated by the lore of the Delaware Valley, this book is an invaluable guide.
Download or read book Borne by the River written by Rick Van Noy and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2024-05-15 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After a near-fatal stroke and a separation, amidst a global pandemic, Rick Van Noy decided to go for a paddle. In Borne by the River, he charts the story of discovery, and healing that came from this solo canoe journey. Paddling two hundred miles on the Delaware River to his boyhood home just upriver from Trenton, New Jersey, Van Noy contemplates his fate and life, as well as the simple joy of sitting in a small boat floating down a large river with his dog, Sully. Deftly combining memoir, natural and local history, and engaging reportage of his encounters with other paddlers and river enthusiasts, including members of the Lenape Nation of Pennsylvania, Van Noy reveals deep and shifting layers of environmental, historical, cultural, and personal significance of the Delaware. Borne by the River reckons with the way that rivers braid into one's own life—thrilling rapids, eddying pauses, and life-changing rifts and falls. Van Noy rediscovers and shares how river journeys can scatter anxieties, wash away regrets, and recreate the spirit in its free-flowing currents.
