Janisse Ray is a nature writer with a deep, personal connection to the Altamaha River in Georgia. The firstpart of the book chronicals her week- long journey by kayak down one of the few undammed rivers in America.
Later sections describe various habitats along the river and efforts by Riverkeepers to protect the adjoining areas that protect the water quality of the river.
Janisse Ray’s love of her home state and this river are clearly evident in her documentations and reflections.
I have ordered two more of her books. I consider her work important and essential in keeping us all aware of the many human activities that threaten our rivers.
