Book Description
The bible of Tennessee canoeing and kayaking, this book provides the paddling enthusiast with descriptions of canoeing streams across the varied terrain of the Volunteer State. A thoroughly revised and updated edition of A Canoeing and Kayaking Guide to the Streams of Tennessee by Bob Lantz and Robert W. Sehlinger, it includes new information and a new primer for beginning canoeists. The improved maps—eighty in all—provide essential information about bridge crossings and feeder streams. To help river runners know firsthand the benefits of watershed conservation, Tennessee Rivers incorporates selected river-protection tales (as told by the paddlers involved) alongside the normal paddling descriptions to encourage riverside users to remain alert and vocal. Lantz simplifies river-running lore to allow quick and safe participation for anyone who wants to get out and enjoy Tennessee’s remarkable rivers.
About the Author
Bob Lantz is associate professor of technology at Cleveland State Community College in Tennessee. He founded and operated the Blue Hole Canoe Company for many years and served on state- and nationwide river organizations. Lantz published canoeing and river-conservation articles in paddling magazines including Canoe, American Whitewater, DownRiver, and the old classic, Wilderness Camping. His conservation efforts included testifying before Congress to gain protection for Tennessee’s Obed as a National Wild and Scenic River and filing as a local petitioner in the successful effort to protect the Frozen Head State National Area watershed by designating it as one of the "Lands Unsuitable for Mining."
