Download Canoeing with the Cree: A 2,250-mile voyage from Minneapolis to Hudson Bay AudioBook Free
In 1930 two beginner paddlers—Eric Sevareid and Walter C. Port—launched a secondhand eighteen-foot canvas canoe into the Minnesota River at Fort Snelling for an ambitious summer-long quest from Minneapolis to Hudson Bay. First publicized in 1935, Canoeing with the Cree is Sevareid’s classic account of this vibrant odyssey to a vast and remote control land, that has motivated years of canoeists, wilderness aficionados and armchair adventurers.
In our era of GPS, cell phones, power pubs, and bug spray, the young men’s profile is even more amazing and nostalgic. Relive their quintessential adventure with this limited-edition book and map place. It offers a recently designed book, a attractive multipurpose collector’s tin, and a colourful fine art quality map annotated by Ann Raiho, who with Natalie Warren were the first women to reproduce Sevareid and Port’s course.
Just with time for the holidays, this limited-edition old classic is the perfect gift idea for characteristics addicts and outdoor adventurers.
The newspaper tales that Eric Sevareid wrote on this trip launched his distinguished journalism career, including greater than a decade as a tv set correspondent and commentator on the CBS Evening News.
