Read This to Get a Feel For the River,
By Jerry Cates (Round Rock, Texas) - See all my reviews
This review is from: River Rescue: A Manual for Whitewater Safety, 3rd (AMC Paddlesports) (Paperback)
This manual contains an abundance of real-life scenarios that give the reader a "feel" for the river. It shows by one example after another how complex the swiftwater rescue problem can become, and how sophisticated the rescue solution ought to be. The reader is challenged over and over to think things through and learn how to respond properly to various situations. Although this book is not designed to serve as the primary instructional text for swiftwater rescue training, it should be required reading for such a program, and can be used as an adjunct to any swiftwater rescue curriculum

This review is from: River Rescue: A Manual for Whitewater Safety, 3rd (AMC Paddlesports) (Paperback)
This book is a neccessity for anyone who is a river runner! It not only covers rescue techniques from the gurus of whitewater rescue, Les Bechdel and Slim Ray, but it also covers ways that one can prevent an accident from happening in the first place.
