Paddle to the Amazon

The true story of a father and son`s epic two-year canoe trip from Winnipeg to the Amazon. In 1980, Don Starkell and his son left for the open sea and paddled nearly 20 million strokes while living through hurricanes, food poisoning, and near starvation. This diary, written on beaches and in the canoe, contains passages that are charming and compelling--a story that readers will never forget. Copyright (C) Muze Inc. 2005. For personal use only.
