You will almost feel like you floated down the Cape Fear River in North Carolina yourself. I live near the Cape Fear and it has been part of my ancestry as well so, of course, I had a personal interest in this book. Anyone who loves nature and rivers will enjoy this book. There is a lot to learn in it, as well.
