Synopsis
Ian Player can justly be called the founding father of canoeing in South Africa. His expedition in 1950 reconnoitring the daunting path from Pietermaritzburg to Durban down the Umsindusi and Umgeni rivers started the Dusi Canoe Marathon. He couldn't then have dreamed, though his vision was great, how the race would expand as it has. Seeded by his pioneering adventure, canoeing has burgeoned into the spectacular and popular sport that captures South African imagination today. Mens, Rivers and canoes is more than about the Dusi and canoeing though. Ian Player's vivid storytelling takes us deep into the wild nature and South Africa's rich history.
