Description
The earliest canoes were merely hollowed-out tree trunks. These gave way to birch bark canoes and, later on, wood-and-canvas canoes. Today there are racing canoes, inflatable canoes, and even whitewater canoes. Readers will delight as their tranquil conceptions of canoeing are shaken and capsized.
