River Reflections

Originally published in 1984, River Reflections compiles forty writings of voyageurs and explorers, pioneers and naturalists, historians and river runners as they recorded their enchantment with rivers. Three hundred and fifty years of river literature come together in this memorable collection, which expresses a history of people's dependence on, enjoyment of, and concern for waterways.

Verne Huser grew up with a passion for rivers. It was that passion that sustained Huser's twenty-year odyssey through river literature and lore to create this book's original edition.
