This review is from: Nahanni : The River Guide (rev. ed.) (Paperback)

If you are planing to go to the Nahanni country for any reason you need to read this book. If you are a fan of Patterson this book is fun to read as a modern guide to the river so you can see the photos of the country Patterson did not include in "The Dangerous River". The book is a a typical guide book and may be a little dry just to read for fun, but once again if you plan to go, get it. The author didn't write the book by looking at a map and reading a few stories, has been there and done it.
