Sweet book.,
This review is from: A Canoeing and Kayaking Guide to Kentucky (Canoe and Kayak Series) (Paperback)
If you live in Kentucky and do any kayaking or canoeing, you need this book. If there is a more comprehensive guide to the waterways of Kentucky, I'd like to see it.

Good book, but not very detailed for put in/out of rivers. I wished it had GPS coordinates.

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: A Canoeing and Kayaking Guide to Kentucky (Canoe and Kayak Series) (Paperback)
Technically accurate and informationally superb! This guide is THE ONLY guide to buy for midwest paddlers interested in the rivers and streams of the Bluegrass State. There is more information in this guide than most paddlers are likely to digest in a lifetime. It is an easy read and as hard to put down as a good novel. Each page is packed with details that drive the "home stranded" paddler to the next page. It will make you crave the flowing waters of Kentucky. A MUST OWN!!!
