5.0 out of 5 stars Truly Fabulous, January 19, 2007

By	B. Vincent (St. Petersburg, FL United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Winston Williams has created yet another fabulous book about Florida. This kayak and canoe guide is not only informative, it's gorgeous. Divided into regions, the maps provide paddlers with state-sponsored trails, landing sites, and driving directions. This book is a definite "must have" for the Floridian paddler.

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome book!!, October 19, 2007

By	C. Groves (Sunny Florida) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

My husband and I just started kayaking and this is the greatest book for finding places to go. The pictures are excellent and there are descriptions of the different rivers as well as maps of where to put in and things to look for. I think that if you canoe or kayak in Florida, this book is a MUST HAVE!!!! In fact, we have several rivers mapped out to go on as soon as we can!!

4.0 out of 5 stars A wonderful introduction to Florida kayaking, July 12, 2008

By	Michael Barnett "coffee is the beer of the mo... (Pasco County, Fl USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is a wonderfully photographed and produced book, and every time I pick it up off of the coffee table (where it proudly lives) for a quick perusal, I just want to get up and go kayaking. It's also the perfect book to share with someone who's never gone before, as both the photography and writing tend to win people over easily.

No, it's not an encyclopedia, and yes, you can get the same type of written information from the Florida State Parks service, but you'll not end up with an attractive, inspiring tome if you do.

I rated it as a four since some of the maps are just a little lacking in detail.
