Peter Austen has been to the world's wet spots and lived to tell the tale. In this
collection of
adventures and
misadventures on and in the waters of Canada, the US, Mexico, Europe, and Australia, Austen
confronts his
aquaphilia by
paddling wild rivers, crossing seas, and diving to coral reefs.

The remarkable characters, culture, history, environmentalism, and life-threatening foibles make for gripping, hilarious, and totally absorbing reading..
