Old Man River

Rob Stevens

Wooden Canoes are in the Blood
Old Man River tells the story of Brett Rogers' 110-day 2400 miles expedition rowing a Yorkboat down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico -including portages!. In the process of traveling through the heart of America, Rogers reveals the real challenge of a river journey is overcoming the inner struggles and personal battles of every day a fierce storms, an entire month of rain, sharing the river with ocean going ships, portaging their thousand pound boat over 17 miles, and coming face to face with some of the most intense industrial landscapes on the planet. Completing the mission means reaching the Gulf Coast, and Brett does anything it takes to reach that goal.
