About This Item
Sierra Club Books, 1992. Softcover. Very Good. 5x1x8. This is the result of ten years of travel, research, and interviews, combined with history and presented as a composite account of one person rafting the 700-mile river from Yellowstone Park to North Dakota. Skillfully blending his experience and observations with those of earlier travelers, such as Lewis and Clark, Krakel shows us the people, wildlife, and clashes of cultures in the river's basin. He describes the threats to this free flowing river, to its wildlife, and to the lifestyles of those living near it, from irrigation, oil drilling, dams, and increasing population pressures. Not an environmental crusade, this is popular history, National Geographic style, filled with striking characters, lesser-known historical anecdotes, and the ever-dominant influence of a great river.
