- Reviewed in the United States on September 17, 2013It's very fun to look back on an adventure that occurred in 1942 that still holds fun for someone today.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 24, 2012I would recommend this book to all outdoor historical enthusiast. Eliot DuBois does a great job decribing the beauty and hazards of floating the Middle Fork of the Salmon River at a time when equipement had not evolved to todays standards.An Innocent on the Middle Fork.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 14, 2019An excellent book. Recommended by a seasoned river rafting guide. Bought it for my son, a new river rafting guide.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 26, 2000The author takes us on two journeys, forty years apart. In 1942, an inexperienced DuBois ran the Middle Fork of the Salmon River becoming the first person to run the river solo. If you have experienced this most challenging and beloved of America's rivers and wonder what it was like in earlier days, this book is a must. Filled with history and whitewater excitement and thrills, the author speaks with passion comparing his two trips and the regulation of the river today.
