Synopsis

"Rapid River Runs" delivers a groundbreaking exploration of swift water navigation by masterfully combining hydrological science with practical paddling techniques. This comprehensive guide bridges the gap between technical understanding and real-world application, making it an invaluable resource for both recreational paddlers and professional river guides.

 
The book's unique strength lies in its ability to translate complex hydraulic concepts into accessible instruction, supported by 3D modeling and slow-motion analysis of water dynamics. The text progresses logically from fundamental river reading principles to advanced applications, incorporating data from governmental surveys and elite paddling programs.

 
Readers gain insight into how seasonal flow patterns and climate change impact navigation strategies, while learning essential skills for managing Class II through Class V rapids. The integration of environmental science with practical instruction helps paddlers understand not just how to navigate rapids, but why specific techniques work in different conditions.

 
Throughout its chapters, the book maintains a careful balance between technical precision and practical application, offering specific protocols for rapid assessment and emergency response. What sets this work apart is its interdisciplinary approach, connecting environmental science, sports medicine, and meteorology to provide a holistic understanding of river ecosystems. This comprehensive perspective, combined with scenario-based training approaches and real-world examples, makes it an essential reference for anyone serious about mastering swift water navigation.

    Like taking a private lesson with the best teacher in the world of fishing, this fly-casting guide offers step-by-step instructions to over forty casts. Casting should be nearly effortless. If you understand fly-casting mechanics and how to adapt them to various fishing conditions, your casting will greatly improve. That has been Lefty’s philosophy since he began teaching fly casting over fifty years ago. Lefty shows how to get rid of a tailing loop, throw a slack-line cast, and roll cast better, as well as casts for tight quarters, in wind, casting with weighted flies and lines, and distance casts. A section on the physical movements explains how to prevent injuries to the rotator cuff and elbow. Whether you fish salt water or streams, heavy rods or light, you'll learn everything from small changes in movements that greatly improve your casting to totally new takes on traditional casts from this book. Lefty is the master, and this book captures his lifetime of wisdom on the subject of casting. “Lefty Kreh is well known for his quick smile and sharp wit, his encyclopedic knowledge of knots and tackle, his decades of fly-fishing exploration around the globe, and his remarkable prowess with a fly rod, but his greatest gift to fly fishers is his role as a teacher and mentor.” —John Randolph

    A Black feminist takes on exploitation and care in America's favorite game. 
     
     
      
    Big-time college football promises prestige, drama, media attention, and money. Yet most athletes in this unpaid, amateur system encounter a different reality, facing dangerous injuries, few pro-career opportunities, a free but devalued college education, and future financial instability. In one of the first ethnographies about Black college football players, anthropologist Tracie Canada reveals the ways young athletes strategically resist the exploitative systems that structure their everyday lives. 
     
     
     
    Tackling the Everyday shows how college football particularly harms the young Black men who are overrepresented on gridirons across the country. Although coaches and universities constantly invoke the misleading "football family" narrative, this book describes how a brotherhood among Black players operates alongside their caring mothers, who support them on and off the field. With a Black feminist approach—one that highlights often-overlooked voices—Canada exposes how race, gender, kinship, and care shape the lives of the young athletes who shoulder America's favorite game.
