Review
"Brian Keating, who was named Canada's environmental hero of 2005 by "Reader's Digest," shares his enthusiasm for all things wild. Highlighted by inspiring photos, Keating shares the tales of adventures he's had on some of the mightiest rivers in the world."
-- "The Chronicle Herald"
"His delight in exploring riparian areas is obvious. Water attracts wildlife: what better place to watch for it? Three sites in Alberta and BC might be of particular interest to young Canadian readers, given that they could be almost in one's own backyard: mountain lakes near Calgary, the South Saskatchewan River in southern Alberta, and wetlands in Creston, BC. . . If you enjoyed the first three books in the ""Going Wild"" series, this one will not disappoint you.
"Highly Recommended"
